| description | This article analyzes the advances in biomedicine, in particular, the case of the cloning of cells and mammalians, pointing out the significant interactions between biotechnological procedures in the laboratory and human socio-cultural needs, hopes and desires. Key topics for anthropology such as kinship, the racial issue, eugenics, nature/culture opposition, sexism, among others, pose new questions in light of the possibilities opened by the cloning procedure, but also -at least- one answer: Nature is not a fixed thing. |

El trabajo analiza los avances en biomedicina, en particular, el caso de la clonación de células y mamíferos, señalando las interacciones significativas entre procedimientos biotecnológicos en el laboratorio y necesidades, esperanzas y deseos socio-culturales humanos. Temas clave para la antropología como han sido el parentesco, la cuestión racial, la eugenesia, la oposición naturaleza/cultura, el sexismo, entre otros, encuentran nuevas preguntas ante las posibilidades que abre el procedimiento de la clonación, pero también –al menos– una respuesta: la naturaleza no es una cosa fija. 2018-07-10 2022-03-15T19:49:46Z 2022-03-15T19:49:46Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion http://revistasacademicas.unsam.edu.ar/index.php/etnocontemp/article/view/458 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/25060 spa http://revistasacademicas.unsam.edu.ar/index.php/etnocontemp/article/view/458/425 http://revistasacademicas.unsam.edu.ar/index.php/etnocontemp/article/view/458/1505 application/pdf text/html Instituto de Altos Estudios Sociales Etnografías Contemporáneas; Vol. 4 Núm. 6 (2018): Etnografías Contemporáneas 2451-8050 |
