Lo Posthumano [Spanish]

The human is the creature that comes from the Enlightenment and its heritage: the Cartesian subject of the cogito, Kant's community of rational beings or the subject-citizen, holder of rights and owner. It is a concept that enjoys a broad consensus and retains the reassuring familiarity of the commonplace: we take for granted our belonging to the species and we have established around it the fundamental notion of Law. But is this really so? Rosi Braidotti, in this original essay, proposes an alternative to a Humanism that has become omnipresent - driven above all by current scientific progress and the interests of the global economy - and that has historically cleverly escaped the delimiting efforts of critical theory. In this way, the posthuman, as a possibility of overcoming what is given, brings a significant change of direction in the way of understanding the fundamental characteristics of our species, our politics and our relationship with the other inhabitants of the planet. At the same time, it raises a series of new questions about the very structure of our shared identities.
