Entre Ortega y Heidegger: en torno a la pregunta por la técnica

Abstract

The matter of the present writing has to do with a question that Heidegger expounds in The Question Concerning Technology (Die Frage nach der Technik), namely the question of an essential determination of Technology in his relationship with Ortegas's approaches to it. Specifically, we will try to examine an issue that Acevedo (1997) insinuates in his introduction to The Question Concerning Technology, namely if is the case that Ortega’s reflections about Technology —especially, for his remarkable consideration in relation to human life as a project— remain at the plane of a mere correct determination —as an anthropological means-end relationship— or they would eventually transcend such schema in favor a phenomenological treatment which links technology with the most profound of human existence.
