The law of biosecurity under the boarding of the discourse ethics

Abstract

The biotechnology activity indicates a perspective to social and ecosystems modifications with improvidence about the results of these alterations. This involves ethical-legal topics, therefore, denotes risks for the contemporary society. The creation of public spaces with popular participation means a procedural proposal of control the possible imposes of the biotechnological activity and intend suppress the temerity. In this way, the discoursive ethics represent a key part of a project of democratic radicalization for which they are valid and accepted norms as universal state, this will in the biotechnological development - Universal Principle. And this will, as a rational will defined by the intersubjectiv of the communicative rationality, will only follow a norm if it will be universal in the measure and all the sectors interested in the biotechnological development to participate of the speeches - Principle of the Speech. For Habermas, the grounded discoursive norms make to be valid for two topics: the knowledge of something that exist in each moment and the every one interest, and also the general will that learned, without pressure, the will of everyone. With all those fundaments, it is able to have thoughts about the effect of the Biosecurity Law - the creation of one discretionary power to regulate the biotechnology activities thought CTNBio and the absence of regulation of the CNBS. These facts are asymmetric for the actual democratic stander and make unable the process of democratic radicalization.
