Abstract

The comparative debate between the concepts of human, posthuman and transhuman has been taking place in the academic and scientific field due to the developments in science and technology. The very concept of humanism, in the europeanist view, always had theologisms that sought the transcendence of human capacities. This article intends to highlight the difficulty of delimiting these concepts due to the relationship between human evolution and the development of the technique. However, in front of the globalization dynamics of the current world system, the imminence of the emergence of fractures among the present human populations is also demonstrated.
