  1. The Morality of Moral Neuroenhancement.Thomas Douglas - 2014 - In Levy Neil & Clausen Jens, Handbook on Neuroethics. Springer.
    This chapter reviews recent philosophical and neuroethical literature on the morality of moral neuroenhancements. It first briefly outlines the main moral arguments that have been made concerning moral status neuroenhancements. These are neurointerventions that would augment the moral status of human persons. It then surveys recent debate regarding moral desirability neuroenhancements: neurointerventions that augment that the moral desirability of human character traits, motives or conduct. This debate has contested, among other claims (i) Ingmar Persson and Julian Savulescu’s contention that there (...)

  • On the Possibility and Probability of Post-Persons: Neuroenhancements and Moral Status.Michael R. Carrick - 2025 - Neuroethics 18 (1):1-10.
    Neuroenhancements have the potential to dramatically increase our intelligence, memory, motivation, and attention, to name a few ways such technology can benefit us. But can neuroenhancements increase our moral status as well? I argue in the affirmative. A higher moral status than personhood is both possible and likely given advancements in neuroenhancements. Some have argued that personhood is the highest moral status possible, so the notion of a post-person is conceptually confused. I respond by presenting an inductive argument with the (...)

  • Genetic Enhancement, Post-persons, and Moral Status: Author reply to commentaries.David DeGrazia - 2012 - Journal of Medical Ethics 38 (3):145-147.
    I am grateful to the journal for commissioning commentaries by Allen Buchanan,1 Nicholas Agar,2 James Wilson and Thomas Douglas,3,4 and to those authors for their thoughtful remarks. In this brief reply, I respond to them in turn. Buchanan remains doubtful that there could be post-persons in the sense of beings who might plausibly be regarded as having higher moral status than (mere) persons. According to Buchanan, moral status is a threshold concept, and the property one needs in order to reach (...)

  • A consideration of the Status of Human in post-human era. 김분선 - 2017 - Environmental Philosophy 23 (23):37-61.
    과학 기술의 발달은 포스트 인간 시대의 도래를 예고하고 있다. 포스트휴먼 시대에 대한 우려는 인간이 통제 할 수 없을 것이라 생각하는 새 시대 자체에 대한 염려인 동시에 인류가 가치절하 될 시기에 대한 두려움을 담고 있다. 비관론자들은 다양한 논의를 통해 인간의 도덕성과 존엄성의 가치가 훼손될 수 있다는 점을 지적한다. 또 실제로 이러한 문제는 현실성 있는 논의이기도 하다. 그렇다면, 인간과 포스트휴먼이 공존해야 하는 근거는 인간만이 가진 도덕적 능력에 기대어 해소할 수 있는가? 이 논문은 포스트휴먼 시대의 인간의 지위에 대한 고찰의 방향성에 대해 고민하면서 다음 (...)
