Abstract

PARRA VALENCIA, Juan Diego. Bioethics and systemic thinking: the diagram of life from Gilbert Simondon and Gilles Deleuze's views. Rev. Lasallista Investig. [online]. 2014, vol.11, n.1, pp.133-141. ISSN 1794-4449.

This article reflects about the idea of life (Bios) according to character or behavior constitutions (Ethos) determining vital activity scenarios (environments) that guarantee the expansion of the symbolic contstructions from which we recognize ourselves as humans. Our action framework will be, then, an evaluation of phylosofical-scientific contexts in which the bioethical concern is latent, following the dynamics that reveal the systemic thinking that has been being established in the academic scenarios for more than 50 years, facing the mechanist models that survive at a big scale thanks to the current techno-economic interests. The systemic model will be useful to revise the idea of the living (Bios) in consonance with the character of environment appropriation according to an action perimeter that defines, simultaneously, the behavior (ethos) and the territory (topos/oikos) with which the eciosystem can be defined. For this exercise, we will travel throughout the theses about individuation, by Gilbert Simondon, and about agencement, by Gilles Deleuze.

Keywords : systemic thinking; bioethics; individuation; agencement; ethology; technique; Gilbert Simondon; Gilles Deleuze; Spinoza.
