TRANSHUMANISM AND POSTHUMANISM IN THE MILITARY ACTION Second Edition

The accelerated pace of economic-social development carries the military instrument in its bandolier, the one with which it every so often reverses tempos, shares methods and exchanges roles. If the Cold War showed us that it was possible for humanity to be destroyed through nuclear weapons, the decades after the fall of the Iron Curtain came with distilled versions for rearranging the power in the international framework. This phenomenon brings along developments of the internal frameworks of manifestation of the states, those of some economic agents that often exceed the economic power of some countries, as well as a fierce competition between the powers that pursue a global or regional status. Far from being fair play, the competition even insinuates and initiates a stepping out of the picture of the human being, the one who is made to build an alter ego with technical features that are apparently planned for his/her own good.
