Tecnica e libertà. Sul punto di vista di Günther Anders

: The concept of freedom that Günther Anders proposes in his youthful work Die Weltfremdheit des Menschen has a theoretical value and indicates freedom “from” the world as a characteristic of the human being; indeed, unlike the animal, man is not integrated into the world. This basic freedom is the root of the freedom “to” do developed in Die antiquertheit des Menschen. Free productivity fostered the myth of progress and reduced the human being to the status of an “antiquated” entity. Due the disparity between human faculties, technocratic totalitarianism has assumed control of human existence, has created a condition of social conformity and finally has deprived man of morality.
