Resumen
This paper is based on instrumental rationality, its limits and consequences on the human being, such as analyzed by the Frankfort School. Placing assisted reproductive technologies in the terrain of scientific technological development, places the human being as product and object of exchange. From the viewpoint of modernity, technology and market are intricately intertwined, and in this case, Man is the technological product, while it is the female body that carries the weight of development. The yearning for motherhood often becomes a prolonged submission to practices that in many cases are experimental in character.Therefore, we find that assisted reproductive technologies present themselves in a bivalent way. On one hand, woman and her body may be objects of violence because instrumental rationality seeks the means to achieve their goals despite of the woman suffering. On the other hand, it is necessary to find a way of living with technology lead by non-violence, which means learn how to live with technology but not submitted to it. We will also use the notion of ?labour? developed by Hannah Arendt in order to think the idea of violence that implies the ?fabrication? of a product.
