FLEISCHER, Déborah; ALLEGRO, Fabián; RIVAS, Daniela  and  SURMANI, Florencia. Biotechnological spectrums in the contemporary process of mourning: the virtual spectrum. Anu. investig. [online]. 2015, vol.22, n.2, pp.99-105. ISSN 1851-1686.

The term spectrum has different meanings, originally, it is related to the manifestation of the spirits that return in a hostile way and that, somehow, they are connected to death and mourning. Nowadays, the mourning task has been modified in a way that it has even lost the importance that it had before, in the processing of death. Although the mourning process has a highl fighted place in the structure of the psychic apparatus, we support the idea that, in our present time, by the imprinting of the cultural changes, this process is shown in another way. Technology has taken an unusual impulse and influences even on the psychic field. The main purpose of the present paper is to investigate some of the changes that may have been promoted by biotechnology in the mourning process.

Keywords : Mourning; Biotechnology; Pain; Virtual; Spectrums.
