LA ERA DE LA TÉCNICA Y LA INTERIORIDAD

Abstract

The following paper attempts to think and characterize the age of technology, whose main feature is the understanding of the technique, not as a simple tool, but as the hegemonic way of understanding and relating with the world; and whose system inserts and objectifies the human being to turn it into a another piece of this machinery, canceling the singularity, difference, human interiority. Thinking about inner being in perspective to technique allows us to open the question of the human being and her condition, as well as the role of this technique. The inner being consists in a movement, in some way existential, showing the mode of being of man, by opening and closing that movement for building identity in proximity to the world and the things of the world; and is opposed to a clear vision and techno-scientific attitude of the world and man’s way. This approach arises mainly from the thought of Emmanuel Mounier.
