Abstract
RAMIREZ BANUELOS, Jesús Francisco. Towards the human right to self-knowledge in Mexico based on neurosciences. Cuest. Const. [online]. 2022, n.46, pp.237-250. Epub Mar 03, 2023. ISSN 1405-9193. https://doi.org/10.22201/iij.24484881e.2022.46.17054.
This article explores the need to rethink the characteristics of law with respect to neurorights. Through an iusnaturalistic approach, it reflects on the emergence of the human right to self-knowledge in Mexico based on neurosciences. The argumentation of this work revolves around the unconscious of the human being. The limitations of the legal construction to protect the internal processes of the brain and its consideration as a relevant object to determine rights and obligations are analyzed. The neologism "intranomia" is proposed to distinguish the internal processes of the brain from the autonomy of the will. It is concluded that the respect, protection and guarantee of the human unconscious implies the deconstruction of the traditional schemes of law.
