Constellating technology

Heidegger's die Gefahr/the danger

Babette Babich

pp. 153-182

Abstract

Heidegger's question concerning technology was originally posed in lectures to the Club of Bremen. This essay considers the totalizing role of technology in Heidegger's day and our own, including a discussion of radio and calling for a greater integration of Heidegger's thinking and critical theory. Today's media context and the increasing ecological pressures of our time may provide a way to think, once again, the related notions of event [Ereignis] and ownedness [Eigentlichkeit].
