Pensar el cuerpo desde la ecotecnia de Jean-Luc Nancy

The status of the human body is decided in the dichotomy between nature and technique. Jean-Luc Nancy approaches this debate from a deconstructive perspective: “there is no nature”. With this provocative statement, he opens the reflection on ecotechnique. “Ecotechnique” is a term that points to the technical constitution of the world, to a structio in which bodies are interrelated under the logic of technical supplement. His proposal thus invites us to think of the human body as that which emerges in the interweaving of technical relations considering both the risk of falling into an ecotechnique dominated by capital and the possibilities of generating new relations that promote the meaning of the world.

Abstract

The status of the human body is decided in the dichotomy between nature and technique. Jean-Luc Nancy approaches this debate from a deconstructive perspective: “there is no nature”. With this provocative statement, he opens the reflection on ecotechnique. “Ecotechnique” is a term that points to the technical constitution of the world, to a structio in which bodies are interrelated under the logic of technical supplement. His proposal thus invites us to think of the human body as that which emerges in the interweaving of technical relations considering both the risk of falling into an ecotechnique dominated by capital and the possibilities of generating new relations that promote the meaning of the world.
