Feasibility Study of Human Genetic Engineering Criminalization

Abstract

Genetic engineering has created unique opportunities in various areas of human life. Plant genetic engineering has led to the provision of more products and more resistance to natural pests and in the field of medicine and human genetics, the treatment and prevention of some incurable diseases are before us. Beyond that, it has provided the opportunity and ability to edit the human genome so that humans can intervene in their destiny and nature. On the other hand, there has been opposition to it and they have demanded the strongest social reaction against it; Especially in human genetic engineering and gene engineering with the aim of improvement. This study, after analyzing the concept of the three principles of criminology, namely the principle of harm, the principle of legal ethics and the principle of patriarchy-law,the possibility of criminalizing human genetic engineering in two areas of treatment and improvement according to the principles mentioned. The descriptive-analytical form is examined. Given some of the criteria for criminology, such as legal ethics and the protection of human values such as human dignity, freedom, and autonomy, governments can criminalize genetic engineering for recovery. They pretend.
