The goal of this article is to present the debate of a few authors about the current crisis of contemporary Western society based on three questions that, in our view, can distinguish a considerable part of its main problems: the autonomization of the economy, the instrumental reason, and cultural decadence. With the first and second questions, the risks of a separation of economy, science and technique from the necessities of the world of life are denounced; with the third question, our current state of impotence to respond to such challenges is denounced. Our goal is to foment the critical discussion of these problems, which seem to us inescapable questions in the present of our lives.
