The coming about of the posthuman perspective is particularly relevant in this context. It is related to the following insights: A move from a dualist towards a non-dualist anthropology. A radical increase of anthropotechniques with the power of enhancing human capacities so that the likelihood of the coming about of the posthuman can be increased. The posthuman can come about by means of digital technologies or with the help of biotechnologies whereby the field of genetics is particularly relevant.
