Abstract

Nowadays, the worldwide vision of technology reveals its traditional subordination to the application of science. Nevertheless, the growing technological development during the last century has pruned its scientific roots in order to become into an own entity able to satisfy human necessities with its own values. Not only the axiological definition of both disciplines is necessary, but also the definition of the binomial science-technique and its coupled role within the progress of the current society.
