SANTOS, Lílian. Transhumanism and global governance of human genome editing. Common themes and Implications for bioethics. Med. ética [online]. 2023, vol.34, n.4, pp.1089-1163.  Epub 05-Dic-2023. ISSN 2594-2166.  https://doi.org/10.36105/mye.2023v34n4.05.

This article explores the implications for bioethics of the common themes between transhumanism and the global governance of human genome editing (HGE). First, the reflexive thematic analysis (RTA) method was applied to a set of texts on transhumanism and a set of texts on the global governance of HGE. As a result of this application of RTA, three common themes emerged and their elements. After that, an example of implication for bioethics of each one of the common themes was developed. Each implication considers the current situation and a task for bioethics. Finally it is concluded that recognising the situation arising from the common themes and working on the three identified tasks is crucial for contemporary bioethics.

Palabras llave : transhumanism; global governance; human genome editing; RTA; bioethics.
