| contents | The Heuristics of Fear: Can the Ambivalence of Fear Teach Us Anything in the Technological Age? Roberto Franzini Tibaldeo Filosofía Fear Hans Jonas Responsibility Heuristics of Fear Technological Risks The paper assumes that fear presents a certain degree of ambivalence. To say it with Hans Jonas (1903-‐1993), fear is not only a negative emotion, but may teach us something very important: we recognize whatis relevant when we perceive thatit is at stake. Under this respect, fear may be assumed as a guide to responsibility, a virtue that is becoming increasingly important, because of the role played by human technologyin the current ecological crisis. Secondly, fear and responsibility concern both dimensions of human action: private-‐individual and public-‐collective. What the ‘heuristics of fear’ teaches us, is to become aware of a deeper ambivalence, namely the one which characterizes as such human freedom, which may aim to good or bad, to self-‐preservation or self-‐destruction. Any public discussion concerning political or economic issues related with human action (at an individual or collective level) ought not to leave this essential idea out of consideration. 2015 artículo científico 2084-9257 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=725780850013 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=7257 Ethics in Progress application/pdf Uniwersytet im.
