JARAMILLO PATINO, Diego Fernando. IS THERE A PHILOSOPHY OF ENGINEERING?. Univ. philos. [online]. 2015, vol.32, n.64, pp.313-328. ISSN 0120-5323.  https://doi.org/10.11144/Javeriana.uph32-64.ficc.

In so far as science and technology have been legitimate objects of philosophical reflection, this is not the case of engineering. Today, philosophy of science and philosophy of technology are well established professional disciplines. This paper aims to show that philosophy of engineering is a field in construction that meets the conditions to be a professional philosophical discipline : academic community, research agenda and dissemination instruments. We perform a descriptive literature search that allows us to identify the constituent moments in the discipline, placing them in a timeline between 1998 and 2014, from the "empirical turn" in philosophy of technology as a foundational event of philosophy of engineering, and through the series of events that, as a result of "empirical turn", make up the discipline over time.

Palavras-chave : engineering; technology; philosophy of engineering; philosophy of technology; ontology.
