Abstract

MARTINEZ, Margarita A. C.. La vejación a través de las máquinas: El concepto de artificio en Peter Sloterdijk. Rev. iberoam. cienc. tecnol. soc. [online]. 2010, vol.5, n.14, pp.125-132. ISSN 1850-0013.

The purpose of this article is to discuss the passage from the pre-modern technique to the modern technique by using the special concept of artifice presented by Peter Sloterdijk in his text "The vexation through machines". This notion of artifice will be connected with some of Gilbert Simondon's considerations regarding the technical object. We will consider, such as Sloterdijk does, which are the consequences of an outpost of the realm of machines in the constitution of the subjectivity and in the metamorphosis of the psyché. The questions that guide the work is why the humanist attitude that opposes man to machine since the Renaissance became strong and if it should be considered, as Simondon does, that this process is the expression of an ontological incomprehension of origins and functions of the technical object.

Keywords : Artifice; Sloterdijk; Humanism; Technology.
