Techno-progressives versus bio-conservatives

Abstract

The aim of this article is to present the intellectual debate between techno-progressive and bio-conservative thinkers. The examination of the clash between these two schools of thought will take the form of an examination of their respective arguments and will go on to explore the possibility of a middle way between the two positions. The final section of the article consists of a critique of transhumanism from the perspective of the ethical principle of equity.
