About the Book

We live in a world of unprecedented challenges and opportunities, but it doesn't quite seem like we're rising to the occasion. Where is the birth of new technologies taking us? Is it always towards progress, or is it sometimes into an increasingly dehumanizing labyrinth? Ángeles o robots is an ambitious reflection on the contemporary human condition in the context of the ecological crisis, the crisis of traditional horizons of progress, and the impact of new technologies on everyday life.

Vivimos en un mundo con retos y oportunidades sin precedentes, pero no parece que estemos a la altura de las circunstancias. ¿Adónde nos está llevando la eclosión de nuevas tecnologías? ¿Siempre hacia el progreso, o a veces hacia un laberinto crecientemente deshumanizador? La antigua disyuntiva entre lo angélico y lo brutal se vuelve disyuntiva entre sentirse plenamente humano (lleno de vida y de propósito) o sentirse máquina (la brutalidad se está mecanizando cada vez más). Estamos ante una encrucijada, en el ojo del huracán de la historia. Nos toca escoger. Un camino lleva al colapso (ecológico, social, personal); el otro lleva a la conciencia y al despertar. Ángeles o robots es una ambiciosa reflexión sobre la condición humana contemporánea bajo el impacto de la crisis ecológica, de la crisis de los horizontes tradicionales de progreso y del impacto de las nuevas tecnologías en nuestra experiencia cotidiana. Una reflexión que parte de la perspectiva de varias tradiciones espirituales (y muy especialmente de la encíclica Laudato si'), de las perspectivas de diversos filósofos (Guardini, Panikkar, Heidegger, Illich, Dreyfus, Taylor) y de distintas perspectivas tecnológicas y científicas. De todo ello emerge un lúcido análisis de las tendencias que laten en el fondo del mundo de hoy.
