La Fabrique pongienne

The journal Arguments (1956-1962), mainly edited by Kostas Axelos, François Fejtö, Jean Duvignaud and Edgar Morin, has been analysed above all as an important milestone in left-wing anti-communism, and as a laboratory for the ideas advocated during May 1968.

Ce prisme interprétatif a occulté tout un pan de réflexion qui a pourtant été déterminant dans la revue : la critique de la « civilisation technicienne », pour laquelle furent mobilisés des outils empruntant au marxisme et à Heidegger. Mais étudier la place de ce qu’on appelle aujourd’hui la « technocritique » dans les pages d’Arguments éclaire le rôle méconnu du sociologue Georges Friedmann, spécialiste du machinisme, dans le développement de cette réflexion. L’article revient enfin sur les tentatives de plusieurs membres d’Arguments pour traduire leur travail théorique sur le plan de l’action politique, et montre comment la revue a posé les premiers linéaments d’une écologie qui refuserait le règne de la technique.Cairn free access
