Social implementation of post-humanism could affect the biological evolution of living beings and especially that of humans. This paper addresses the issue from the biological and anthropological-philosophical perspectives. From the biological perspective, reference is made first to the evolution of hominids until the emergence of Homo sapiens, and secondly, to the theories of evolution with special reference to their scientific foundation and the theory of extended heredity. In the anthropological-philosophical part, the paradigm is presented according to which human consciousness, in its emancipatory zeal against biological nature, must “appropriate” the roots of its physis to transcend the human and move towards a more “perfect” entity; we also assess the theory that refers this will to the awakening of the cosmic consciousness in our conscious matter. Finally, it assesses whether this post-humanist emancipatory paradigm implies true evolution or, instead, an involution to the primitive state of nature.

从南方古猿到电子人。我们正面临人类进化的终结吗?

后人文主义的社会实施可能会影响生物的生物进化,尤其是人类的生物进化。本文从生物学和人类学-哲学的角度解决了这个问题。从生物学的角度来看,首先是指原始人的进化直到智人的出现,其次是进化论,特别是它们的科学基础和延伸遗传理论。在人类学-哲学部分,提出了范式,根据该范式,人类意识在其对生物自然的解放热情中,必须“占用”其物理的根源,以超越人类并走向更“完美”的实体;我们还评估了将这种意志指向我们有意识物质中宇宙意识的觉醒的理论。最后,它评估了这种后人文主义的解放范式是否意味着真正的进化,或者相反,它是一种对原始自然状态的卷入。
