However, this raises the question of who constitutes the \u201cwe\u201d \u2013 the communities that face the political challenges posed by HETs. We argue that there is a global human commu-nity that directly faces at least some of these challenges, and this fact underscores the relevance of a cosmopolitan perspective. While some authors have already advocated for a cosmopolitan approach in addressing issues such as poverty or climate change, they often do so from a moral outlook, without adequately distinguishing between ethics and politics. In contrast, we assert that HETs present compelling arguments in favour of cosmopolitanism as a political stance. In support of this claim, we consider two cases: the pills that would allow people to eat at will without gaining weight, and the choice between different types of cognitive enhancers.<\/p>\n<p>Keywords: human enhancement; political moralism; political minimalism; cosmopolitan-ism; cognitive enhancement; RCAN1 gene<\/p>\n<p>Puede accederse al art\u00edculo <a href=\"https:\/\/revistes.uab.cat\/enrahonar\/article\/view\/v72-rodriguez-bermejo\/1489-pdf-en\">aqu\u00ed<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-5304 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/wpd.ugr.es\/~filolab\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Lilian-Javier-Cosmopolitismo-1-300x263.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"417\" height=\"366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpd.ugr.es\/~filolab\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Lilian-Javier-Cosmopolitismo-1-300x263.png 300w, https:\/\/wpd.ugr.es\/~filolab\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Lilian-Javier-Cosmopolitismo-1-768x674.png 768w, https:\/\/wpd.ugr.es\/~filolab\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Lilian-Javier-Cosmopolitismo-1.png 817w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 417px) 100vw, 417px\" \/><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lilian Bermejo-Luque y Javier Rodr\u00edguez Alc\u00e1zar -miembros e investigadores de FiloLab- han publicado recientemente el art\u00edculo \u00abHuman enhancement technologies and the arguments for cosmopolitism\u00bb en Enrahonar.
