«El principio de responsabilidad: ensayo de una ética para la civilización tecnológica» is the philosophical essay by Hans Jonas, published by Herder.
Hans Jonas argues that humanity's technological power, capable of transforming or destroying the planet, demands a new ethic. Faced with environmental degradation, atomic energy and genetic research, he proposes the principle of responsibility: the survival of the species and of the future must be the central moral criterion.
The work originally appeared in 1979 as «Das Prinzip Verantwortung»; this Spanish edition falls within philosophy and technology.
Recommended for readers of philosophy and critical theory interested in the ethical dilemmas of technology and the environment.
