Transhumanism is an international cultural movement which supports physical and cognitive improvement of the individual through means of new technologies. Day after day new technologies emerge, with whom the human individual alters his behavior, technologies which – we consider – are projected to determine a certain behavior in users. The new technologies of human improvement can determine the individual to work more, be smarter and live longer. Within the working environment, the possibility of the employee being asked to take certain drugs in order to better resist to stress, is high. Many times, the decision of improvement is no longer taken willingly, but imposed by third parties. As the number of jobs is lowering, robots substituting a part of the work done by humans, the decision of enhancement in order to be more competitive is no longer deliberate, hereby involving a series of constrains, direct or indirect. In our paper, we aim to analyse the way in which new technologies influence the human behavior, since the decision to improve certain capacities, such as the resistance to stress, fatigue etc. in order to keep a job could be taken under constraint. |
