Abstract
This article aims to draw an ontological distinction between technique and techno-logy. While in the common parlance both terms tend to be used as synonymous, a philosophical reflection necessarily implies a previous moment of conceptual clarification. In this regard, I start from well-known positions within the philosophical debate trying to overcome the problem of lexicographic approximation to technique and technology. Throughout the text, and from an approach of Gille´s idea of technical system, I draw a map in which the technical and techno-logical are the beam and the underside of a philosophical commitment where fulcrum will not be objects but man.
