The power that New Genetics has placed within mankind=s grasp requires ethics from which decisions on matters of genetic manipulation can be made. This work sets out to (1) place the ethics of biotechnologies in the context of bioethics as a whole; (2) point out the different spheres of New Genetics which pose ethical problems, recognising that each of these requires specific treatment; (3) outline an ethical framework to guide replies, a structure built up from Kantian ethics, Sen=s capabilities approach, the ethics of discourse and Jonas= responsibility principle, and (4) to tackle what is perhaps the most burning question in the ethical sphere: if the power of genetic manipulation requires once more bringing up the discussion on human nature, as approached by Habermas and Fukuyama, amongst others.
