The global cultural revolution led by ONU has been boosting a new kind of ethics, with a laical character, which main task is to de-construct the Judeo-Christian athropology. This revolution started by claiming for the access to contraceptive methods, abortion and sexual freedom and, then, it became a struggle against marriage and families. The initial purpose was to liberate women from the "slavery of reproduction" and then the establishment of global values to build new paradigms by means of a new language that de-constructs reality to celebrate diversity, free will, holism and ambivalence, in a way that everything is a matter of options and not of identities or realities. Latin America is not a stranger to this "death culture", given the fact that the assisted reproduction techniques in humans, the induced abortion and the euthanasia have been being legitimated, under the pretext of autonomy and under all kinds of euphemisms generated by the new language. But, in the bottom, what is actually happening is that a society that legitimates abortion and euthanasia, based on false pietisms, is a society that is proclaiming its ineptness to offer recognition, solidarity and affection.

Palabras clave : cultural revolution; gender; feminism; death culture, abortion; euthanasia; orthotanasia; assisted reproduction techniques.
