"The author begins his observation from a linguistic phenomenon in Bahasa Indonesia that indicates swapped roles and positions between machineries and workers. Many tools including vehicles and are treated as human beings. On the other hand, a lot more cases show that workers are treated as a part of technology, if not as the machine themselves. According to the author this happens simply because workers do not have their own paradigm. Workers in Indonesia, particularly in Java, think the way their employers do. Workers easily understand, and even support any sort of management decree or decision regarding their wages and economic benefit during the Asian financial crisis. The real human resources building, however, will never be achieved unless the workers can develop a perspective that is free from the penetration of the establishment and their high-tech machineries."

"Alam, manusia, dan teknologi seringkali dibedakan dari bentuk dan sifatnya. Adanya distingsi antara artifisial dan natural menjadikan sebuah realitas ditempatkan pada konsep oposisi biner. Manusia dan alam adalah entitas yang dikategorikan sebagai yang natural. Sedangkan teknologi diklasifikasikan sebagai yang artifisial. Pada dasarnya, teknologi dipahami bukan hanya sebagai instrumental, teknologi telah bertansfromasi menjadi pola pikir dan tindakan manusia dalam mengatasi faktisitasnya. Namun bagi para aktifis deep-ecology, teknologi dianggap sebagai sumber eksploitasi terhadap kelangsungan ecosphere. Pemahaman tersebut sejatinya berdiri pada paradigma instrumentalis yang hanya melihat teknologi sebagai means-ends. Paradigma instrumentalis memberikan pemahaman yang dangkal terhadap apa itu teknologi. Penulis mencoba memberikan sebuah eksplanasi tentang adanya perpindahan status teknologi dari artifisial menuju natural. Proses transisi yang dialami oleh teknologi tidak lain merupakan sebuah bentuk ko-evolusi dengan manusia dan alam. Sehingga realitas teknologis pun kini mulai melebur dan menyatu dalam konsep natural. Penulis juga melakukan sintesa terhadap ide tentang teknosenstrisme dengan ekosentrisme deep-ecology, bahwa limitasi teknologi adalah sebuah kekeliruan. Proses naturalisasi teknologi dan ko-evolusi telah memberikan dampak adanya proses kulturalisasi terhadap alam. Dalam hal ini, alam tidak lagi menyandang label natural, tetapi ia telah beralih menjadi entitas kultural.

Human, technology, and nature usually distinguished through their forms and their nature. The distinction between natural and artificial replace the reality to binary position. Human and nature have been classified as natural things. While technology is defined as artificial thing. Basically, technology no longer becomes instrumental object, it had transformed to the way of human rsquo s thinking and activities to overcome their facticity. However, for deep ecology activist, technology remain supposed to be a source of devastation for the living of ecosphere. That understanding stands on instrumental paradigm which sees technology just as means and ends. The instrumental paradigm gives a shallow understanding towards what technology is.

In that case, the author tries to give an explanation about the transition of technology from artificial object to natural one. The transition process that happens to technology was kind of co evolution with human and nature. So, technological reality had diffused and united in natural framework. The author also tries to synthesize the notion of technocentric with ecocentric, that the limitation of technology is an oversight. Naturalization and co evolution process implicated to nature rsquo s culturalization. In this case, nature no longer bearing natural label, but it transformed to cultural entity."
