Abstract

The main aim of this paper is to define an outline of a theory of Technology in the production process. The starting point is identified in the work of Raniero Panzieri, who in the early Sixties combines theoretical analysis of Marx’s "Capital" with the factory investigation. Panzieri’s research indicates the non-neutrality of Technology applied to production processes. Finally Panzieri’s conclusions are combined with the Marxian analysis on the Machines and Technology of Book I and Book III of "Capital". The result is a critical perspective that investigates production processes in a high technological content as a political issue.
