Técnica e formação humana em Marx

Abstract

The history of humanity develops based on the struggle for the survival of the human species, being linked to the material production of its existence. The human being is born of nature and will take place in his practical and productive activity, he has needs and desires, arises from nature and belongs to it, working, producing and creating (MARX, 2013). The present work has as objective to problematize the conceptions that guide the question of how the human formation was developed and influenced through the category work over time with the use and implantation of technical innovations in all its productive process, directly impacting on the social relations. Capital in the face of its crisis tries to legitimize itself through false ideologies in a neoliberal scenario where the worker increasingly does not see himself in the productive process to which he belongs and becomes more dependent and inert before the ruling classes with the passing of times. The new ways in which capital includes the worker, subjectively and objectively, have provoked profound changes in social and work relations. Work is the basis of human existence, where men will characterize themselves as such in so far as they produce and give continuity to their very existence (Marx, Engels, 2007). Throughout the ages society is structured according to the way in which it organizes the process of production of human existence, in this way the process of hominization is closely linked to the work and the techniques and tools employed for that purpose. Work is understood as human action in nature and in the historical-social, commercial, technological and cultural universes, occupying in modern society a central place in the set of human activities. In this way the research developed has as objective to analyze the conceptions of work and the insertion of the technique throughout history in the capitalist mode of production and consequently how the human formation occurs in this process, with a view to its analysis from Karl Marx.
