Eudoxa Policy Study #1: Morphologic Freedom
The current technological and medical development is increasing individuals' ability to change their physique. We do not at present have the cultural, political or ethical conventions to keep up with the speed of this development.
The freedom to make decisions about what changes to apply or not to apply, morphological freedom; is derived from traditional natural rights though. It is a solid moral guide light for policymakers trying to navigate away from infringements on individual rights in each particular case.
Regulation prohibiting certain technologies does not provide the individual with protection against being forced into changing themselves in way they do not agree with. Morphologic freedom will help healthcare organizations, public and private, to design suitable healthcare solutions for the individual.
