Expatiates about the question of technique, taken as mark of the traditional ethic’s insufficiency and as start point for the elaboration of a new theoretical heap capable of deal with the difficulties bring by technological development. Compares the moral based on the responsibility towards the posterior generations with traditional conceptions, especially the Kantian, objectifying to distinguish how far Jonas’s ethics replaces them or complements them. Investigates the metaphysics fundamentals of responsibility ethics and the solutions showed for the question of man’s preservation compulsoriness. Develops a legit human’s life conception, systematizing some of its aspects. Discuss the problem of human’s finitude and of the morality of search for undefined life’s elongation, contrasting the arguments proposed by Jonas, favourable to organic existence having a term, with the main objections formulated by its critic. Ponders the question under an evolutive and cultural point of view, aiming to determine how far the relation of the man with the technique would not be a mark of the evolutive process.Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/Ética da responsabilidade.Finitude humana.Progresso tecnológico.Prolongamento da vida.bachelorThesis
