ABSTRACT:
The question of technology can be approached from multiple points of view and particular analysis, but it requires understanding of the global framework of its paradigm in our civilizational era. Belonging to this, contemporary man develops a dominant and unavoidable form of relationship with things and with other men, marked by the prevailing model. Heidegger called Ge-stell to the technological world project, and sought to describe and deconstruct its figure, defending that learning to think enables the retrieval of a free relationship, capable of opening another world project, focused on inhabiting and lived as a “step back”. Starting from there, this text seeks to show the scope of Heidegger’s idea of thinking and its repercussion in Arendt and Agamben, as a manifestation of authenticity and as an alternative to the banal immersion in technological culture.
