| description | The essay wants to discuss some aspects concerning the role of human being and its activity in our technological era. Starting from the modern idea of “humanism” it briefly explains Descartes’ and Hobbes’ concepts of subjectivity and shows the limits of them. Then, by referring to Heidegger’s interpretation of Dasein as Mitsein and to Levinas’ category of subject, the essay tries to develop from an ethical viewpoint a relational idea of humanism. This idea can be practically more useful, and ethically more justified, for facing the new challenges of our world, the essay argues. |

El artículo desea discutir algunos aspectos concernientes al rol del ser humano y su actividad en nuestra era tecnológica. Partiendo de la idea moderna de “humanismo” se explican brevemente los conceptos de subjetividad de Descartes y Hobbes, y se señalan sus límites. Luego de hacer referencia a la interpretación heideggeriana del Dasein como ser-con (Mitsein) y a la categoría de sujeto en Levinas, el artículo busca desarrollar desde una perspectiva ética un concepto relacional de humanismo. Esta concepción puede ser más útil en la práctica, y más justificada éticamente, para enfrentar los nuevos retos que el artículo señala para el mundo actual.
