Abstract

From patient to citizen consumer: the theme of subjectivity, which in bioethics is latent in the discourse on autonomy and self-fulfillment, becomes topical again in the debate on Human Enhancement. Against the background of evolutionary theories, from the meta-phisical imprint, there is hypothesided the transition from liberation from illness and pain to liberation from normality ancd the human condition itself. The article questions the significance of this project, which delegates to the biotechnology market the answer to question about the meaning of identity and human existence.
