Description
The Question Concerning Technology in China: An Essay in Cosmotechnics by Yuk Hui explores the historical and metaphysical questions surrounding modern technology. Building on Heidegger's critique, Hui argues for the need to reimagine a distinctly Chinese philosophy of technology that can engage with globalized technics. This book delves into the obscurity of the question of technology in China, examining why it was never thematized in traditional thought and how time became a non-issue in Chinese philosophy. By drawing on lesser-known Eastern philosophical thinkers, Hui sheds new light on this neglected topic. Hui's investigation offers a systematic historical survey of major concepts in traditional Chinese thinking, followed by an original exploration of the relationship between technology, metaphysics, and cosmotechnics.
