Abstract
Starting from an axiological praxis established to a techno-scientific reality, since the continuous advance of scientific values grants unlimited power to the human being, it is essential to reflect on the risks of the misuse of this power, postulating principles of action and ontological foundation. Today the problem of the axiological foundation of technoscience is presented in a current context in which the human being finds himself in a selfish and unimportant facet in front of the global situation arising from the preponderance of consumer capitalism. In this context, philosophical perspectives are analyzed from a socio-political approach that lands in a characterization of modern society where techno-scientific progress predominates in order to establish a praxeological foundation that raises reflection guidelines that are related to the power obtained by the human being against nature and how techno-science is linked to these factors.
