Abstract

Biopolitics seems to be a concept of particular importance due to the pace of development of the biological sciences and changes in socio-politics. Its main objective - ‘the welfare for each and all individuals’ - takes on special meaning which makes one examine the foundation on which it is based and ask more profound questions, e.g., what is the true and real good for each individual and the whole community, and on what kind of foundations must it be built? Then, even if the question relates primarily to the biological field, so essential for biopolitics, the answer would reach beyond biological boundaries.
