People don’t have a right to be created because it is the creation itself that creates interests (that were not there before the creation) and it is the existence of interests that creates our need to protect those with interests through rights. It therefore makes no sense to grant someone a right to something that absolutely cannot be in their interest.
No one exists before being created therefore before the creation of someone there is no right holder who can claim his right to be created.
A long and branched philosophical discussion has been taking place in recent decades about whether it is possible to talk about the rights of future generations. We think that it is certainly possible to talk about the rights of future generations, but these rights do not include the right to be created, and for the simple reason that creation is what creates rights for those who are created, therefore there can be no right to be created. There is and cannot be a right without a right holder. And before someone is created, there is no right holder who has the right to be created.
The reason that we can still talk about the rights of future generations is that assuming there will be future generations (even if we really oppose it), that is, there will be those who will be created in the future, all those who will be created will have rights from the moment they are created. Since once people are created they will also have various interests, it makes sense to talk about certain rights of future generations even though they do not yet exist, for example the right to be created in an egalitarian, compassionate, nurturing and non-hostile environment. This is because once they are created, the created people will have an interest in living in an egalitarian, compassionate, nurturing and non-hostile environment. But at no moment before they were created, those who would be created had an interest in being created. And so it makes no sense to talk about their right to be created. Everyone who is created has the right not to be harmed because everyone who is created will not want to be hurt, but no one has the right to be created because no one wants to be created before they are created. No one wants and no one can want anything before being created, because there is no one to want anything at all before there is anyone who was created.
The central question in the discussion about future generations is whether, even though they currently do not have interests and will only have interests in the future, one must take into account those that will exist in the future. The central question in the discussion about creating people is whether to create people with interests at all. These are completely different questions with completely different implications. In the discussion about future generations, we are talking about those who do not currently exist but will exist in the future, therefore even though they do not currently exist, the actions and decisions of those who do currently exist can affect the interests of future generations when these are created and therefore have interests. That is, there is the possibility of not taking into account their interests because they do not exist now and then it is likely that they will be harmed by this when they do exist, or to take into account their expected interests in the future when they do exist and have interests, and then try to at least provide them with a better starting point (or a less bad one).
On the other hand, in the discussion about the creation of new people, since it deals with the question of whether or not to create new people, it is not the case that there are beings with interests anyway, but the discussion is precisely about the creation of beings with interests. In contrast to the discussion about future generations, which starts from the assumption that there will be generations to come, who will have interests in the future, and the question is what are the obligations of the existing generations towards them at the moment, in the discussion about the creation of people there are no interests in any case. In the case of a decision not to create someone for example, there is not, was not and will not be a being with interests that has the right to be created, since a decision in this direction completely neutralizes the possibility of the existence of a person with an interest and therefore it does not make sense to talk about a person with a right before a decision has been made whether to create a person.
