Abstract

Today, it is an inescapable reality that advances in neurotechnology have experienced a significant advance, bringing to the fore the uncertainty surrounding the possibility of scrutinizing and even controlling the human brain, and along with it our emotions or thoughts. This reality has given rise to currents within the Law, which advocate the systematization and regulation of a set of rights associated with the protection and defense of a kind of indemnity or inviolability of "the mental". Even granting the category of fundamental human right to this series of so-called neuro-rights. The essay that follows aims to answer the question about what philosophical commitment exists behind a proposal for neurorights legislation. In order to elucidate such essential issues as the possibility of certainty about the existence of other minds, as a basic presupposition to formulate any type of regulation.
