The chapter focuses on the discussion between Radovan Richta and proponents of the conception of Scientific-Technological Revolution (STR) on the one side, and Karel Kosík and radical democrats on the other side. The question is discussed, whether it is possible to reconcile technological determinism with humanism, whether th STR secures democratic institutions or rather leads to the technocracy.
