Vol 38 (2023): NATURE AND TECHNOLOGY

From the Introduction: “How far are we from 1954, when Heidegger published the pioneering Die Frage nach der Technik? And how far are we from that analysis, which was based on a peculiar, clear, and reasoned understanding of physis? How far are we also from the first studies on biopolitics, from the end of the era in which life was an undisputed fact and the beginning of an era in which it became a subject of discussion and an object of social engineering or emancipation?

The current philosophical literature is full of proposals that rarely give equal attention to the two terms of the relationship nature-technology. The rediscovery of the anthropologically characterised palaeoanthropology of Leroi-Gourhan, the developments in ethology after Lorenz, the revival of interest in Simondon, the neo-Heideggerism, the post-phenomenology of Ihde and Veerbek, as well as the spread of SST with Latour and Ingold, are just a few examples, alongside the deep ecological tendencies of the object-oriented Ontology of Harman or Morton.

The Second Conference of the SIFiT, which took place in October 2021 in Naples, focused on these themes. This issue of the “Bollettino Filosofico” publishes the proceedings, which have been extensively reviewed, also thanks to the lively discussion they provoked. Consistent with the format of the Journal, the essays are divided into two sections, Focus and Forum, which correspond respectively to the lectures and parallel sessions that took place during the conference”.
