Remo Bodei nos propone una reflexión sobre el impacto y consecuencias de las biotecnologías sobre la estructura de los individuos y las sociedades en el futuro inmediato. Se presentan algunos datos específicos de las biotecnologías junto con una serie de consideraciones filosóficas que parten de textos clásicos hasta llegar al debate contemporáneo (en especial a las tesis de Sloterdijk sobre el "parque humano" y de Fukuyama sobre Our Posthuman Future, Consequences of Biotechnological Revolution, "El fin del hombre"). Los fármacos psicotrópicos y la acción de las biotecnologías no sólo están cambiando la denominada "Naturaleza humana", sino también las relaciones sociales, familiares e incluso la política, que se convierte en zoopolítica, intentando crear humanos de criadero, fácilmente manipulables, cuyo comportamiento puede ser influido por fármacos psicotró-picos, como el prozac y otros, o por amenazas bio-terroritas que se convierten en una forma de control social. ; Remo Bodei proposes a reflection about the impact and consequences of biotechnologies on the individuals and societies' structure in the immediate future. He presents some specific information about biotechnologies together with a series of philosophical considerations that start from classical texts and reach the contemporary debate (especially, Sloterdijk's thesis about the Human Park, and Fukuyama's thesis about Our Posthuman Future, Consequences of Biotechnological Revolution). Psychotropic drugs and the action of biotechnologies not only change the so-called "Human Nature", but also social and family relations, and even politics, which becomes zoopolitics, and try to create breeding ground humans, easily manipulated, whose behaviour can be influenced by psychotropic drugs, such as prozac and others, or by bio-terrorist threats which become a way of social control.

Abstract
This article is about two passions – hatred and anger – in contemporary Western democratic societies. In the totalitarian experiences of the 20th century hatred (nationalistic, racial, or between classes) was the dominant passion. The subsequent establishment of democracy, "mild" by nature, is today confronted with the forming of a terrible mixture in which ethnic and religious hatred (sometimes caused by humiliation) tends to melt in the defense of a collective identity whose survival is felt to be threatened.
