CORDOBA PALACIO, Ramón. CONSIDERACIONES BIOLÓGICAS Y ANTROPOLÓGICAS ACERCA DEL EMBRIÓN Y LA REPRODUCCIÓN ASISTIDA. pers.bioét. [online]. 2007, vol.11, n.1, pp.54-63. ISSN 0123-3122.
This article analyzes criteria that, in the light of biology and philosophical anthropology, allow us to affirm that from the very formation of the zygote, i.e., the result of human gamete syn-gamy, we actually are in the presence of a human being, a human individual in an act expressing its (his or her) existence according to its (his or her) own circumstance. From philosophical anthropology, certain objections relating to the human being conception are clarified. Any manipulation of the human embryo, even for apparently humanitarian purposes, deserves drastic ethical rejection, unless any such manipulation directly redounds to its own personal and individual good.
Palavras-chave : Bioethics; medical anthropology; manipulation of the individual; manipulation of human embryos.
