Corpi differenti. Per la ripresa di un approccio teorico-critico (Different bodies. Going back to a theoretical critical approach)

Abstract

In order to think at best today’s consequences of technological progress, at least in some of its components, on the human psycho-physical structure, the author of this contribution considers important to reflect on some transformations of the complex of labor activities, understood as exceeding in respect to the effective economical “expense”. This indicates that form the complication of the relation between man and technology, so crucial for example in the philosophical discussion of the twentieth century, it can also derive a displacement of the same relation in favor of a renewed centrality of the constitutive sociality of human being, which does not have thus to be considered as unavoidably resolved in the modalities given by its private appropriation to the aim of the earning of wealth.
