Los parámetros con los que hasta el momento se distingue a las llamadas prácticas eugenésicas actuales de aquellas enmarcadas en la eugenesia clásica son: el carácter privado, individual y terapéutico de las primeras en contraposición al carácter colectivo, coercitivo y de perfeccionamiento de las segundas. Sin embargo, el debate ético actual en torno de las biotecnologías ha planteado sobre todo a partir de las críticas contra la llamada eugenesia liberal por parte de autores como Jürgen Habermas– la necesidad de considerar en un futuro a los tratamientos genéticos como objeto de redistribución a fin de evitar la discriminación que supondría la imposibilidad de acceso a los mismos. En el presente trabajo se intenta mostrar que dicha pretensión llevaría a la disolución futura de las características propias de la eugenesia actual que hoy permiten distinguirla de la clásica. En este sentido, se propone un análisis epistemológico de estas prácticas científicas actuales (o futuras) como uno de los caminos posibles en busca de redefinir parámetros que impidan identificar a las mismas con el fenómeno eugenésico del siglo pasado.

description |
Until now, the parameters that distinguish the current eugenic practices form those encased in classic eugenics have been the private, individual and therapeutic characteristics of the first as opposed to the collective, coercive and improvement nature of the second. However, the present ethical debate over biotechnologies (particularly, criticism of liberal eugenics by such authors as Jürgen Habermas) has given rise to the need to consider, in the future, genetic treatment as an object of the redistribution in order to avoid the discrimination implied in the impossibility of access to such treatment. The present paper attempts to show that this pretension would lead to the future dissolution of those very characteristics of current eugenics that distinguish it from the classic form. we therefore propose an epistemological analysis of present and/or future scientific practices in order to redefine those parameters that prevent their identification with the eugenic movement of the past century. |
