I am going to talk about the topic of the notion of progress. First of all, I would like to give the definition of this notion: the idea of progress concerns the notion that society can change in a good way in terms of scientific and technological progress, modernization, democracy, life quality, etc. Progress is either development or advancement.
However the idea of progress still causes debate, some consider that it will be beneficial, and others harmful. We must answer the question: must we treat scientific progress always as progress? My presentation will fall into three parts. We shall first of all raise the subject of genetic engineering. Then we shall handle the case of eugenics and forced sterilization, and finally we shall see if progress is always beneficial and its ethical standpoint.
First of all, genetic engineering has its uses in of plenty fields like industry, farming, pharmacy, or medicine. This applies to bacteria, humans or animals. The first genetically modified organisms were bacteria. Genetic engineering seems to offer many possibilities. In fact, thanks to gene modification, farmers may reduce their dependence on dangerous substances and get rid of pests and diseases. Then animals can also be genetically modified. By changing the genes of certain animals, you can increase the amount of raw material that can be harvested, for example you could have leaner meat, more milk from cows or more wool from sheep, etc. That’s the first application of genetic engineering in the agricultural field. But it’s also used with food because genetically modified food has been sold since 1994. In fact, thanks to gene modification, the taste, the expiration date, and the quantity of nutrients can be improved and/or increased. A tomato could have a better taste and stay fresh for longer. Moreover, genetic engineering has uses in the field of medicine and pharmacy. Medicine can be found directly in products if the DNA of the animal or plant is altered. For example, a glass of milk might be brimming with antibiotics! Gene modification could also be used to improve the diagnoses and predictions of serious diseases like diabetes or cystic fibrosis. Genetically engineering is a huge scientific progress which could either be beneficial or impractical. But is it the only one?
Secondly, we are going to talk about eugenics and forced sterilization. The term eugenics was coined by Francis Galton, a British explorer and natural scientist, in 1883. Eugenics is not a genetically engineering ………………………………………
Now, I will talk about forced sterilization………………………………………………….
Genetic engineering, eugenics and forced sterilization have a lot of advantages. But these have also many downsides and we can find a lot of cons.............
