Summary: |
One of the most important implications of the Human Genome Project was the acceleration
of the patenting of living organisms as well as of human genetic information in the context of
progress in biotechnology and biomedicine. Facing this situation, the international community
has not remained indifferent. It provoked the creation of documents such as the Universal
Declaration on the Human Genome and Human Rights issued by UNESCO, the Convention
on Human Rights and Biomedicine drafted by the Council of Europe, and the Gijón Bioethics
Declaration created by the International Society of Bioethics. In short, the aim of this paper is
to analyze the concept of �human dignity� in relation to �humanity� and the human genome. |
