Summary: | If technology has always been a fundamental element in human life, it has become in the modern-contemporary world the determining element of our life in all its dimensions, that is, it has become the place from which and in function of which everything from macro to micro is thought and regulated. This is what Pope Benedict XVI calls the "technocratic cultural horizon" and Pope Francis calls it the "technocratic paradigm". The text makes a philosophical-theological reflection of technological power in the current world from its implications and its socio-environmental challenges. It begins with a reflection on the importance and place of technology in human life (anthropological approach). It presents the fundamental characteristics of modern technology from its intrinsic relationship with science and with the dominant forces of society (relationship technology-science-power). It finishes with some thoughts of theological-pastoral significance from its implications and its socio-environmental challenges (theological approach). |
