How can sexuate difference rescue humanity today?
How can we resist the universal technico-scientific mechanism henceforth set up? How can we secure a lasting development not only for nature as earth, water , air and sun, but also for us as natural beings? In particular, how to protect our relational potential and energy against such a danger? How can we avoid sacrificing our desire to economic, scientific or pseudodemocratic ideals that a technical functioning and technical mediations have already deprived of natural energy and dehumanized?
