论消费社会中人的物化

On the Materialization of People in the Consumer Society

启蒙运动高扬的人本主义道路,在进入工业社会尤其是消费社会以后,发生了严重的偏离。在资本所营造的虚假意识形态幻象中,在欲望的激发之下,人成为资本增殖的工具,丰盈的内在潜能被遮蔽,其全面实现的希望被扼杀。同时对人之评判标准也远离了精神性、道德性的向度,逐渐物质化。人之本质被扭转,深陷存在意义的危机之中。人的物化,意味着人之精神维度的放弃,意味着以人自身为目的人本主义价值观的消解,实质上是人类精神的倒退。深入剖析消费社会中人的真实处境与命运,回归人的本真状态的欲求愈发旺盛。

The path of humanism advocated by the Enlightenment has undergone a serious deviation after entering the industrial society,especially the consumer society.In the false ideological illusion created by capital under the stimulation of desire,people become tools for capital’s proliferation,their rich inner potentials have been obscured and their hope for full realization is strangled.At the same time,the criteria for judging people are also far away from the spiritual and moral dimensions and gradually materialized.The essence of human beings is reversed and trapped in the crisis of existential meaning.The materialization of human beings means the abandonment of the spiritual dimension of human beings and the dissolution of humanistic values for the purpose of human beings themselves,which is essentially a retrogression of the human spirit.There is a strong demand for in-depth analysis of the real situation and destiny of people in the consumer society and the desire to return to the true state of human beings.
