O ciborgue no limiar da humanidade: redefinindo a pessoa natural.

Abstract

It is the person who inaugurates the legal existence of being: without her, it is difficult to reach agreement on the specificities of rights and duties. In the midst of this relationship, transhumanism, philosophy that advocates for an enhanced human being in order to transcend its biological nature, finds practical support in the interaction of technology with biology, resulting in the gradual expansion of modes of human "being", where the cyborg emerges as a differentiated human potential in vulnerabilities and potentialities compared to modern Homo sapiens . Thus, the legal personality considered contemporaneously is affected and rethinking its formulation becomes necessary. It is maintained that the unprecedented possibilities of protection and accountability of the cyborg imply its legal existence through a new person, the unnatural person.
