Este artículo analiza el alcance del concepto de “renta tecnológica”, elaborado por Bolívar Echeverría, planteando su pertinencia para articular una perspectiva crítica sobre el capitalismo digital. Con ese fin, primero, revisamos la filosofía de la tecnología que Echeverría desarrolla junto a su crítica de la modernidad capitalista. Luego, analizamos las principales dimensiones de la noción de renta tecnológica, destacando sus diferentes vínculos con la obra del filósofo latinoamericano. Luego, ponemos en discusión la perspectiva de Echeverría con los diferentes diagnósticos del capitalismo digital entendido como tecnofeudalismo. Finalmente, concluimos que la crítica de la economía política desplegada por Echeverría resulta fundamental para el análisis y la comprensión de las nuevas dinámicas del capitalismo sostenidas por la monopolización de las tecnologías digitales.
This paper analyzes the scope of the concept of “technological rent”, developed by Bolívar Echeverría, proposing its relevance to articulate a critical perspective on digital capitalism. To that end, first, we review the philosophy of technology that Echeverría develops together with his critique of capitalist modernity. Then, we analyze the main dimensions of the notion of "technological rent", highlighting its different links with the work of the Latin American philosopher. Then, we discuss Echeverría's perspective with the different diagnoses of digital capitalism understood as technofeudalism. Finally, we conclude that the critique of political economy deployed by Echeverría is fundamental for the analysis and understanding of the new dynamics of capitalism sustained by the monopolization of digital technologies.
