This article engages with Paul Ricoeur's early phenomenology of the will – particularly his analysis of the irreconcilable figures of ‘unhappy consciousness’ – to shed light on the impact of digital technologies on the anthropological condition. In doing so, it develops the philosophical premises of Whitehead and Hannah's contribution by foregrounding the Kantian undertone of Ricoeur's thought, ultimately pointing to the need for a critical, yet nonapocalyptic, posture toward technology.

Abstract

This article engages with Paul Ricoeur's early phenomenology of the will – particularly his analysis of the irreconcilable figures of ‘unhappy consciousness’ – to shed light on the impact of digital technologies on the anthropological condition. In doing so, it develops the philosophical premises of Whitehead and Hannah's contribution by foregrounding the Kantian undertone of Ricoeur's thought, ultimately pointing to the need for a critical, yet nonapocalyptic, posture toward technology.
