Such is the case of technologies like cybernetics and biogenetics, present on a daily basis in the so-called advanced post-capitalist societies. Cyborgs and mutants are discursive figures that refer to this area of knowledge and at the same time embody radical changes that occurred during the 20th century that problematize and blur certain limits dear to humanism (between humans and animals, between organisms and machines). The novel Cataratas by the Argentinian writer Hernán Vanoli uses these particular characters to make a critique of the extractive production models of natural resources as well as informational resources. Algunas figuras de profusa aparición en textos del género ciencia ficción permiten ingresar a problemáticas actuales sobre la relación de los sujetos en entornos tecnológicos que a su vez los constituyen. Tal es el caso de las tecnologías cibernéticas y biogenéticas, presentes de forma cotidiana en las llamadas sociedades avanzadas postcapitalistas.Cyborgs y mutantes son figuras discursivas que refieren y, a la vez encarnan, cambios tecnológicos radicales sucedidos durante el siglo XX, que problematizan y vuelven difusos ciertos límites caros al humanismo (los límites entre humanos y animales, entre los organismos y las máquinas). La novela Cataratas del escritor argentino Hernán Vanoli se hace de estas figuras para establecer una crítica tanto de los modelos productivos extractivistas de los recursos naturales, como de los recursos informacionales.
