Abstracts

EN

In a propaedeutic manner the author focuses on human dignity and the instrumentalization of human beings. From a general point of view and from discussions with selected philosophers, this paper seeks basic answers to several questions: How do we understand the concept of “human dignity”? What is human dignity? How do we recognize human dignity? The problem of the instrumentalization of human beings stands out on the basis of a deeper understanding of human dignity, and vice versa. The author comments on, complements and clarifies the discourse on the instrumentalization of human beings and applies the acquired knowledge to the question of possible (self)instrumentalization of gamete donors in Czech Republic. This issue has not yet been sufficiently considered in the Czech Republic, which is in contrast to the development of assisted reproduction in recent years.
