The answer to that question depends on our view of education itself. This paper proposes an answer to the critique of transhumanism which comes from a traditionalist standpoint. It argues that education is something that has a much deeper value and, therefore, transhumanism is not compatible with it. The argument in this paper tends to show that their conception of education has little to do with the contemporary conception of education and that, if we do take an alternative approach, the question changes altogether. If we were to pose a question on the relation of education and transhumanism, we need a correlate to connect them. I believe that the correlate is found in the concept of just distribution. This assumes that the contemporary education is seen from the realm of the political. By doing so, I intend to open a way from which we can talk about the correspondence of transhumanism and education. Therefore, the method that this paper takes is the following \u2013 elaborating what it is meant by transhumanism and education, open a discussion with the authors that criticize transhumanism from the basis of traditional education and provide an alternative view which is based on the political notion of distributive justice.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Keywords<\/strong>: <em>\u201cEducation\u201d; \u201cTranshumanism\u201d; \u201cMetaphysical Realism\u201d; \u201cDistributive Justice\u201d; \u201cTechnological Upgrade\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Author: Vladimir Luki\u0107 e-mail: vl.lukic.96@gmail.com Centre for Ethics as Study in Human Value, University of Pardubice Can Education Answer the Transhumanist Challenge?
