No presente artigo é exposto e discutido um conjunto de posições teóricas acerca da aplicação da genética na medicina com vistas a examinar uma possível ruptura antropológica. Trata-se de uma tese acerca da desumanização da medicina decorrente da implementação de biotecnologias que visam a prevenção e o tratamento de doenças associadas a fenômenos genéticos e à reprodução humana. Segundo essa visão, a "geneticização" da medicina vem acompanhada de uma ideologia que deve ser denunciada por comprometer a dignidade e a liberdade humanas. Após um balanço crítico acerca do impacto real da genética na medicina, são analisados casos concretos de aplicações médicas da genômica nos quais são comparadas as posições contrárias e favoráveis à tese do caráter desumanizante da geneticização.Descargas
