Memory, personal identity, and memory modification. Jungert, M. In Selbstgestaltung des Menschen durch Biotechnologien, pages 129–140. Francke, Tübingen, 2015. abstract bibtex Memory certainly is one of the most significant characteristics of human beings. It is connected with anthropologically essential capabilities like strategic planning, self-reflection, and the development of a unique life story. Although the importance of memory seems to be evident, there is a strong negligence of the role of memory and remembering in theories on personal identity. In this chapter, I will demonstrate that this is mainly due to three factors: 1.) the missing differentiation between various kinds of memory; 2.) the one-sided focus on diachronic identity in the philosophical debate on personal identity; and 3.) the lack of integration of psychological research on memory into philosophical theory. I will discuss how to approach each of these problems and outline possible implications for the debate on memory modification and enhancement.
