生产方式与现代技术的责任分析——鲍德里亚的现代技术伦理思想述评

Obligation Analysis of Production Mode and Modern Technology——A Review of Baudrillard's Ideas of Ethics in Contemporary Technology

综观鲍德里亚一生,现代技术及其社会效应始终是其思考的核心问题。本文认为,鲍德里亚的哲学思想可以简单地概括为以现代技术,尤其是大众媒介与最先进的数字和克隆等技术的仿真和仿像为核心的技术批判理论。它既是一种悲观的技术决定论,也是一种现代责任伦理观。在当今的信息化和数字化时代,马克思主义必须直面现代技术的挑战。我们既不能像鲍德里亚那样,用技术虚无主义和技术悲观论来反对或取代马克思主义的科技观,但也不能故步自封,仅仅抱着生产和劳动的范畴不放,无视现代技术所引发的新问题,而是必须不断地更新和完善马克思主义的现代技术哲学思想,加深对现代科学技术与马克思主义唯物史观的理解。

The paper holds that Baudrillard＇s philosophical idea can be summarized as a theory of technology criticism against contemporary technology, especially technology of simulation and simulacra like mass media and the most advanced technology of digit and clone. It is a type of pessimistic technology determinism theory, and at the same time an expression contemporary obligation. The author maintains that we should not resist or replace Marxist concept of science and technology with technological nihilism or technology pessimism as Baudrillard did. Instead, we should continue to renovate and advance Marxist philosophy in contempory technology and further our understanding of contemporary technology as well as Marxist historical materialism.
