Human Dignity and the Human Genome: Do Genomic Interventions Undermine Human Dignity?

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Biotechnological advancements raise fundamental questions about the essence of the human being. This article examines the relationship between human dignity and the human genome, focusing on whether interventions in the human genome, in general, are incompatible with human dignity. International and European instruments, such as the Oviedo Convention and the UNESCO Declaration on the Human Genome and Human Rights, place the genome under special protection, often invoking human dignity as justification. The article argues that while the genome plays a role in shaping individual identity, it is not a prerequisite for human dignity. The connection between the human genome and human dignity gives rise to an expanded notion of dignity - one that emphasizes respect, solidarity, and shared responsibility toward humanity and future generations. Human dignity may thus impose limits on certain genomic interventions. However, interventions in the human genome are not inherently contrary to human dignity.
