Abstract
We have entered the third technological revolution, the biotechnological one, which affects the biological nature of man. Cyberculture is already widespread. According to some authors (Deleuze & Guattari, Harris, Sloterdijk) the time has come to acknowledge that the era of the posthuman has begun. Others, however, are trying to slow the drift (Fukuyama, Habermas). Moving from Kant, the articles attempts to give a different reading of much an issue.
