In the context in which we find ourselves, a cutting-edge University, it is imperative that we find answers to the positions that our young students assume, therefore there is no one better than Adela Cortina, a highly relevant Spanish philosopher, to help us clarify what for some we do not know. There is a need to do so because the arguments that place human beings as worthy of rights are well founded; But for those who were born recently and who have a critical attitude and at the same time move in a great relativism, it is more than pertinent to comment a little about this author's book, whose title is The Borders of the Person, which is extremely interesting. because it carries out an analysis that is in dialogue with the position of animal rights groups that present arguments that seek to justify that irrational animals should be given the same treatment as human beings.Downloads
