Argumentos de Razón Técnica
type: channel
description: Argumentos de Razón Técnica is a scientific research journal devoted to specialized studies on the relationship between scientific-technical knowledge and society (STS studies). Its main objective is to integrate research perspectives on epistemological, historical and ethical problems, as well as on the socio-political, socio-economic and socio-cultural dimensions of scientific and technological research. The aim is therefore to promote the study of and reflection on one of the fundamental axes of contemporary culture and society through the convergence of the "culture of the humanities" with "techno-scientific culture". Thus, the scope is to encourage the conjunction of points of view, both of scientists and technologists, interested in a better understanding of the social implications of their work, and of philosophers, historians and sociologists of Science and Technology; and also of economists, jurists, social scientists and professionals who deal with some of the multiple aspects of the relations between Science, Technology and Society. <img src="[binary]" alt="" /> <img src="[binary]" alt="" />

Hybrid places
type: item
description: Looking at the literature on scientific collaboration and how different types of research are linked, the social studies of science have addressed these questions by emphasising the construction of hybrid cultures, i.e. hybrid languages, exchanges of practices. In order to think about this problem of scientific collaboration, we propose to focus attention on the places where researchers work. We argue that scientists create hybrid places that allow for the articulation between different types of research, especially field and laboratory research. By 'hybrid' we mean that the place and the knowledge produced have characteristics of both the laboratory and the field. In addition to developing the concept of hybrid place, we argue that these places are the product of scientific practices, especially experimental practices, and that there are two types of hybrid places: lab-like fields and field-like laboratories. For these purposes, we will recover different cases that illustrate the concepts presented, which we develop from historical works together with primary sources from different disciplines.

Determinism, automatism and autonomy: A technological inventory for social transformation?
type: item
description: The aim of this article is to address the question of whether it is possible to make a social choice between different technologies, developed in the capitalist mode of production, which could be reappropriated in the course of a social transformation. The first part is devoted to exploring to what extent concepts such as determinism, automation and autonomy, applied to contemporary technological development, can serve as tools to guide us in the current context. The second part analyzes the relationship between technological development and capitalist crisis, and addresses the problem of the choice of different technologies in the context of a far-reaching systemic crisis. The concluding section summarizes our heuristic proposal to address the problem of the «technological inventory».

Transindustrial movement and 4.0 technologies
type: item
description: Transhumanism has become a political, social, and economic project and commitment to human enhancement based on a global technocratic system of government on which the Fourth Industrial Revolution turns. This study addresses transhumanism within the framework of the present trans-industrial model and the technologies that accompany it and support transgenic agricultural production, the transgender movement, and state and private projects that advance the transhumanist agenda. The findings reflect that the universality in the narrative of movements and initiatives at the global level underlies the articulation of transhumanism, and, to achieve this, the genetic engineering of human beings, the feeding of transgenic products, the transgender movement and the demand for therapies and devices that alter their DNA, with or without their consent, it’s inevitable.

Occupational stress in the COVID-19 era
type: item
description: The objective of the present work was to specify a model for the study of work stress, considering a review of the literature that emphasizes three components related to exhaustion, neglect and frustration. A non-experimental, cross-sectional and correlational study was carried out with a selection of 100 workers from a public hospital, considering their working hours, as well as their seniority. A structural equation model was established in which exhaustion was the hegemonic component that explained the highest percentage of variance with 27%, although the research design limited the results to the research scenario, suggesting its extension to another. context.

Markus Gabriel's dispute against Trans-/Meta- Humanism
type: item
description: This article aims to offer a critique of the philosophical foundations of transhumanism. A philosophically coherent analysis of this movement can be sketched from the critique of the naturalistic ideology presented by Markus Gabriel's New Realism. Ontological pluralism, as expressed through the concept of fields of sense, provides grounds to question the validity of naturalism as a basis for self-understanding. The metaphysics of transhumanism is criticised in order to highlight its ideological and ethical issues. Additionally, it examines Stefan L. Sorgner's Eurotranshumanism, a Nietzschean interpretation of transhumanism, to demonstrate how the critiques of New Realism affect even the adaptations of the movement that share its philosophical presuppositions.

Autonomous vehicles and rights of persons with disabilities
type: item
description: People with disabilities face a number of barriers to personal mobility, and creating an equitable transportation system is one of the challenges that can promote social inclusion. Autonomous vehicles can be a solution to this problem. This article explores the relationship between equitable transportation and social equality, highlighting the opportunities and risks that exist for different groups of people with disabilities and functional diversity, including people who have difficulty driving due to age. It also discusses how different groups perceive autonomous vehicles. The conclusions provide recommendations for the establishment of real and effective policies for equitable transportation and for the industry to incorporate universal design patterns. It also highlights the need for disability organizations to be proactive in constructive dialogue with governments and industry.

Telemedicine and diagnostic artificial intelligence: evolution, prospects, and social challenges
type: item
description: This article examines the evolution of telemedicine as one of the key fields in modern medicine, utilizing information and communication technologies to provide medical services remotely. The study's goal is to analyze the historical development of telemedicine and its impact on medical practice, as well as assess the prospects of using Diagnostic Artificial Intelligence (Diagnostic AI) in telemedicine. The research methodology includes discourse analysis, based on the works of Michel Foucault and Gilles Deleuze, allowing the examination of medical institutions as mechanisms for controlling and normalizing patient behavior. The study concludes that telemedicine significantly improves access to healthcare, reduces costs, and enhances treatment efficiency. Diagnostic AI represents a new phase in telemedicine, capable of accelerating and improving diagnostic processes, though its implementation is accompanied by significant ethical and social challenges. The novelty of this article lies in critically examining the role of telemedicine and diagnostic technologies in contemporary society, with a focus on their disciplinary functions and the influence on the relationships between patients and healthcare professionals. The conclusion emphasizes the importance of further study and regulation of Diagnostic AI in medical practice to minimize risks and ensure equitable access to healthcare.

CULTURAL INDUSTRY AND KANTIAN SCHEMATISM.
type: item
description: This work explores how the flow of consciousness seems to coincide with the flow of the cultural industry that is described in volume III of Bernard Stiegler's Technique and Time. Starting from the possibility of questioning the strict separation between technique and culture, this French thinker allows us to think about cultural industries, such as cinema, in the context of new media and current societies. To this end, we try to analyze the continuities and discontinuities that the concept of cultural industry has in Stiegler and other thinkers who have analyzed it. We also believe that it is necessary to recover the concept of Kantian schematism in this author's work. It is possible that this Kantian element allows us to approach the enigmatic and complex thesis that technique is time and to be able to get closer to understanding why it is necessary to think of a “new critique”.
