[The Hypertrophy of Autonomy in the Bioethical Debate].

In the current bioethical debate personal autonomy is frequently used as an argument to justify the legalization of new options for the subject. This is the case, for instance, of the controversies around surrogated motherhood, organ free market, euthanasia or egg freezing in order to postpone motherhood. This paper aims to show how legalizing certain options can be harmful to people, and would justify and perpetuate situations of domination of some human beings over others. In this regard, the importance of recognizing the unavailability of certain goods and human rights is underlined.
