Abstract
In their desire to improve the human condition, transhumanists are also concerned by the problem of death that is, in fact, their greatest enemy. A huge number of modalities and techniques were invented to eliminate this scourge of humankind that is the subject of the most advanced biological research. Among the ways to treat the deadly disease bearing on us all, one must take into account the development of the political order. Therefore it is questionable whether an immortal society would need the kind of policy that is ours, or whether it should be replaced by another. In the latter case, remains the question of what will be the form of the policy for immortalsI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
