Abstrakt: | The paper discusses the consequences of technological
change for agent’s spiritual development,
defined here as a form of experiencing one’s life,
its meaning and relation with the key aspects of
reality. The analysis revolves around the concept
of the “Butlerian Jihad” adapted from Frank Herbert’s
Dune. I start with brief discussion of Samuel
Butler’s claim against the machines to pinpoint his
and early XIX-century luddites’s insights into the
consequences of technological development. This
is followed by addressing anarcho-primitivist critique
of industrial society by Theodore Kaczynski
and John Zerzan. Part three deals with the notion
of “jihad” which offers useful insights into both
the religious presuppositions underlying some of
the innovations, as well as enables rising some
important questions concerning agent-related consequences
of the wide spread use of technology.
This, I argue, might be best dealt with within the
virtue ethics framework. |
