Abstract

Human enhancement in the broad sense, i.e. both individual and social, requires the most accurate definition of human nature, character or essence, because only on its basis it is possible, whether at an individual or collective level, to decide which interventions into the individual, community and society are useful and beneficial and which, on the contrary, harmful and dangerous with regard to their short-term and especially long-term interests. We discuss this problem with regard to a series of important research articles published in the Slovak academic journal Filozofia, that with a few exceptions, for various reasons, have not even come close to fulfilling the stated epistemic goal since 2014.
