Ciencia y tecnologia. Los multiples senderos de la intolerancia

In: Revista mexicana de ciencias políticas y sociales, Band 44, Heft 179, S. 119-136

Abstract

This article traces the paths of intolerance as a result of new discoveries in science & technology. The process of globalization is breaking traditional identities created by the modern state. The author presents the new scientific branches to open a discussion on the consequences of globalization & also to introduce the link of this research with a new identity, a planetary group, called "extropians" or "transhumanists," who are using multimedia to spread their beliefs. Discussion focuses on their points of view on the present & future of humanity, what they reject & why, & the need to consider the scope of tolerance. 9 References. Adapted from the source document.
