FISCHETTI, Natalia. A kaleidoscope - Big wave: Technological rationality dialectics in Herbert Marcuse's work. Estud. filos. práct. hist. ideas [online]. 2012, vol.14, n.2, pp.29-44. ISSN 1851-9490.

This text is a part of the M.S. Dissertation, "Scientific-technological rationality. Contributions to an epistemological reflection on Herbert Marcuse's work", under the supervision of PhD Delia Albarracín for the Master in Methodology for Scientific Investigation, Lanús University, directed by Esther Díaz, held on August 26th, 2011. What follows is a summary of our approach to Herbert Marcuse's work, which focuses on the crossing between the anthropological and the epistemological vision, from a methodological view that we call dialectics. The proposed convergence implies that the technological rationality category is central in his work and permits a certain reading of concepts that are still in force to think over our human condition. This category joins philosophical and political reflections in an attempt to unveil the main ideology that unites individuals in the XXth century's principal social models.

Keywords : Technological rationality; Dialectics; Epistemology; Methodology; Politics.
