Learning Outcomes
The aim of this minor is to develop critical thinking on technological issues.
We generally consider technology as a very useful tool to improve our life, to solve problems and to enjoy ourselves. Though, is there any negative downside? Has human being lost something of his/her peculiar nature? Is human being enhanced or diminished? How human being has changed with technological progress? Did we lose any particular value during that evolution?
This course will be set on four parts:- Anthropological inquiry on Technics
- New sociability
- A New Narcissism
- The impact of Technologies and Communication Tools on human life
- Transhumanism
- Enhancement, augmentation, transformation of human body by technological devices
- Philosophical inquiry on Technics
- The Question of Technics: what is the technological paradigm?
- Technophobia versus Techno-philia
