Abstract

[The concept of person is the most frequently used philosophical concept in the bioethical and biojuridical debate. The appeal to the dignity of the person and to the rights of the person, which anyone would feel to subscribe to immediately, hides many philosophical ambiguities. The concept of “person” is going through a speculative crisis. What is a person? Who is a person? How should we treat a person? These are recurring questions in bioethics and biolaw, that often lead to different and even contradictory answers.]
