Having Trouble with the Midterm
Hello Everyone (including the Professor),
I am working on Part A of the midterm and am having trouble. I began by defining all of the terms we need to include and I feel that I have a pretty good understanding of all of them. I am having trouble linking them to Crawford, specifically the passage, “At such a moment, technology is no longer a means by which our mastery of the world is extended, but an affront to our usual self-absorption.”. Are we supposed to be linking them to this passage? And what does Crawford mean by “reality and reliability of the human world”? I don’t understand how Weber’s work ethic (and does this mean the Protestant work ethic?) is related to the “reality and reliability of the human world”. Sorry for all of my questions. I am just really confused by this question. Any help or guidance in the right direction is appreciated!
