Synopsis "Transhumanism in Africa: The Prospects of Moral Enhancement and Its Challenges"

This anthology shows how African philosophy can provide novel ways of understanding the relationship between transhumanism and moral enhancement, which concerns the augmentation of individuals' moral capacities through scientific and technological interventions. These interventions help individuals surpass their moral limitations, making them always act morally in posthuman fashion. This volume considers how African axiological values can refute or support radical moral enhancement from African philosophical perspectives. For example, one can defend radical moral enhancement by envisioning a posthuman era in Africa, or argue alternatively that radical moral enhancement truncates the process of acquiring normative personhood. This volume is of interest to researchers, professionals, and students interested in exploring the prospects and challenges of transhumanism and moral enhancement beyond Western perspectives and within the African context.
