To the question of the essence of technique

In modem scientific literature, the essence of technology is often understood in a simplistic way. It comes down to either the phenomena of spiritual life: it is understood as the expression and consequence of goals, motives, values, will, cognitive activity. Or to the process of transformation of nature and the creation of material goods. However, first of all, technology in particular, the transformed nature as a whole is a means of development of the person himself, his essence and life in general. Awareness and transformation of objects is only a part of the process of man’s production of himself (self-development). The technique has a natural essence integrated into social reality.
