Jacques Ellul, The Technological Society - 0 views

  •  
    French philosopher Jacques Ellul, wrote one of the most reknown critique of Technology, The Technological Society, New York, Knopf, 1964 He explains that society lost control of Technology which is being completly autonomous. With DIWO-Lab, by making ourselves and rummaging into the design of things, we'll collectively master the Technology. From article "Jacques Ellul" Wikipedia (en): It is useless, he argues, to think that a distinction can be made between technique and its use, for techniques have specific social and psychological consequences independent of human desires. There can be no room for moral considerations in their use: "Not even the moral conversion of the technicians could make a difference. At best, they would cease to be good technicians. In the end, technique has only one principle, efficient ordering."

Really useful to justify our consortium and a DIWO Lab environment.
