This article addresses the issue of calculative thinking in the work of the philosopher Martin Heidegger, considering how it is present in our historical moment as determiner-producer of our subjectivities. To do so, we will analyse the terms of historical horizon, Dasein and technique, identifying the sources sought by Heidegger for the word "calculus" to support what he considers calculative thinking. In this way, we advance towards the approximation between technique and calculative thinking, culminating in the hypothesis that we live in the Age of Technique, precisely because our way of relating to ourselves and our surroundings is through calculation.
