Explanatory Answer
The main idea of the passage is that engineering is taught today ignoring important social and political nontechnical parameters and this, in turn, has adverse consequences for society. Option D is the correct choice.
Option A states the exact opposite of what the passage says. The passage says technical-social dualism separates technical problem solving from social considerations.
According to option B, the objective of best solutions in engineering has shifted the focus of pedagogy from humanism and social obligations to technological perfection. The passage does not talk about any such shift in objective from earlier times to now. It only says that today engineering is taught independent of social dimensions.
Option C is again the opposite of what the passage says. The author's point is that non-subjective reasoning hinders the development of solutions that respond to the complexities of entrenched systemic problems.
