RODRIGUEZ, Pablo Esteban. Information Technologies and Posthuman Control: Towards a New Definition of the Humanities. Rev. colomb. educ. [online]. 2017, n.72, pp.99-120. ISSN 0120-3916.
The article proposes a historical review of the relationship between the definition of the humanities, the role of intellectuals, and educative and formative processes, taking as axis the expansion of information theories and technologies. The hypothesis is that the crisis of the humanities in the contemporary world is provoked by the pressure of two factors: the rise of information technologies as the main means of social relations, and the consolidation of a certain "neoliberal" common sense by which individuals are conceived as autonomous spaces of economic investment, especially in the educational field. Different philosophical positions are described, which are centered on the notion of formation in all educational levels: the ideas of the French philosopher Gilbert Simondon concerning the tension between technology and humanism, posthumanism (of Peter Sloterdijk and Franco Berardi), and Gilles Deleuze's view about the emergence of Societies of Control.
