Most human action has a technical dimension. This book examines four components of this technical dimension. First in all actions various individual organizational or institutional agents combine actional capabilities with tools institutions infrastructure and other elements by means of which they act. Second the deployment of capabilities and means is permeated by ethical aspirations and hesitancies. Third all domains of action are affected by these ethical dilemmas. Fourth the dimensions of the technicity of action are typical of human life in general and not just a regional or culturally specific phenomenon. In this study an interdisciplinary approach is adopted to encompass the broad anthropological scope of this study and combine this bigger picture with detailed attention to the socio-historical particularities of action as it plays out in different contexts. Hermeneutics (the philosophical inquiry into the human phenomena of meaning understanding and interpretation) and social science (as the study of all human affairs) are the two main disciplinary orientations of this book. This study clarifies the technical dimension of the entire spectrum of human action ranging from daily routine to the extreme of violent protest.
