Abstract

BARRIO, Catalina. The criticism to the technique in Arendt: an interpretation of the unexpected. Rev. iberoam. cienc. tecnol. soc. [online]. 2011, vol.7, n.19, pp.105-110. ISSN 1850-0013.

The work tries to approach the three issues or presumptions about the technique and the technical production in Hannah Arendt. The first is that all produced object or device conditions the reflexivity of the operating individual. The second is that every action thought from the technical era leads to the called "unforseeable consequences". And the third it is that there exists a moment of previous decision to all artefactual production, that due to their unforseeable consequences escapes from the principles that regulate it. Then, the interpretation of Anders will be considered regarding what does thinkining action models about the technical era mean, and its contribution in complementing the vision of Arendt on the matter.

Keywords : Technique; Device; Unforseeability; Action.
