Resumen:
This paper develops about the social transformations in the context of women's
rights, considering the ethical implications originated from technological advances
and the paradigm of the state intervention on their body and on their will. Thus, it
associates bioethics to biolaw, promoting the dialogue with the biotechnology issue in
order to examine the controversies existing between the rapid pace of discoveries
and the boundaries of citizenship and fundamental rights of women. Thereby, based
on the matter regarding to the rights of the personality, it discusses the sexual and
reproductive rights of women pursuant to the state intervention. Moreover, it
exposes briefly the evolution of the women's rights, the role of the feminist movement
and the importance of giving a new lease of life to their rights within the context of the
valuation of the private autonomy. In carrying out this research, it was used the
deductive reasoning, based on the general idea of the women's autonomy on legal
and social relationships over his own body, taking into account the situations which
put in evidence the new paradigms of bioethics and biolaw. It was used the historical
method, analyzing briefly the evolution of the women's rights in history and its
reflection on the society. Also it was made use of the comparative method, making
comparisons on the influence of the women's rights and the process of social
evolution. Handling research techniques of bibliographic indirect documentation, it
was made an overview of existing titles on the subject discussed, so as the direct
documentary research, consulting the legislation concerning to this matter. It must be
taken into account that, even facing the rules concerning to the women’s freedom of
choice, it must be given a second thought on its application therewith the protection
of human dignity. So, the implementation of personal rights as a way of developing
one's own autonomy and the consequent effectuation of sexual and reproductive
rights are human rights and must be enforced massively.
