Gómez Pineda, Floro Hermes2023-05-232023-05-232024978958763721210.58863/20.500.12424/4284663http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12424/4284663Bioethics expresses an awareness that-gives-what-to-think about a science whose capacity for objectification involves life as a response to the restlessness, uneasiness and concern that has been generated in different fields of scientific knowledge, not only in that of life sciences, on the future of life on Earth as a consequence of the transformation of today’s man “into a powerful geological force” that threatens the survival of the global ecosystem and that brings us back to the Greek tension ancient between bíos and zoé, which presents us with coextensive forms of life in the natural being of man (human and animal) that support the vision of Potter who proposed a “mixture between basic biology, science social and humanities”. Consequently, by putting bíos and zoé in relation to the global ecosystem, the novel confluence of biology and ethics appears before our eyes; That is to say, it will no longer be the parallel currents of biology/ethics, but the study of two intertwined series, the series of the scientific and the series of the symbolic, which means contacting, intertwining, forming a web, weaving, a braiding and a warping the two series.spaEditorial Bonaventuriana, Universidad de San Buenaventura Colombia & Globethics PublicationsAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/bioethicsbíoszoégeological forceBioethicsBook chapter
