ABSTRACT
I Someremarks about thepresent-day decline in the relationship between Philosophy and Science (a) At the height of a scientific one-world civilization such as ours at this historical stage, paradoxically enough the question arises whether science has anything to do with humanism. The purpose of science is regarded as the technical exploitation of the world in the ideology of Karl Marx on the one hand, and in Martin Heidegger's doctrine of the 'technical appropriation of the world' ('technische Weltbemachtigung') on the other.
