A maquinação a partir do abandono e do esquecimento do ser em Heidegger

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to discuss the origins and consequences of machination (Machenschaft) in the history of Western thought. For this purpose, we make an ontological-phenomenological reading of the question of technique from Heidegger's meditations, especially in his Contributions to Philosophy (Of the Event), published in 1989. The reflections here think of machination as a disposition that, in its genesis, reveals itself as an event beyond the strength and will of man, highlighting the abandonment and forgetfulness of being as founding events of history. We seek to show the true meaning of the historical condition of the entities in the contemporary context by showing how the occultation and the absence of being represent the original background of existence. Thus, the fundamental point of this text is the indication that the force of essential absence may have more robustness than the presence of any entity.
