资本视域中的现代技术

Modern Technology in the Vision of Capital

"资本时代"的技术在总体性上是现代技术。现代技术在"资本时代"能否成为技术现实,支配于在资本循环中依次执行货币资本、生产资本、商品资本职能形式的资本。在资本循环的三个阶段中,现代技术因被资本购买而成为"资本的要素",是其成为技术现实的必要前提;现代技术因被资本使用而执行生产资本的职能,是其成为技术现实的普遍根据;现代技术的产品作为"商品产品"因被资本出售而执行商品资本的职能,是其持续成为技术现实的关键环节。据此,被海德格尔视为"座架"的技术现实地存在于"资本座架"之中,或当且仅当支配于资本时,现代技术才能成为现实的技术。如果当代的技术哲学没有超出它所处的"资本时代",那么技术与资本的关系或许是技术哲学研究的一个重要领域。

The technology in ＂times of capital＂ is the modern technology in totality. In ＂times of capital＂ , whether the modern technology would become a real technology or technical reality depends on the capital which in tern takes the forms of monetary capital, production capital and commodity capital in the circulation of capital. In three stages of the circulation of capital, modern technology constitutes capital element due to its being purchased by capital, which has become a necessary precondition of modern technology to become reality~ modern technology performs the functions of productive capital due to its being utilized by capital, which has become general basis of technical reality ~ the products of modern technology as ＂commodity products＂ perform the functions of the commodity capital due to its being sold by capital,which constitute the key aspect of the modern technology constantly becoming technical reality. All this indicates that in ＂times of capital＂ technology which being regarded as ＂Ge-stell＂ by Heidegger really exist in the ＂Ge-stell＂ of capital. In other words, if and only if subject to capital, can modern technology become a real technology. The relationship between technology and capital may be an important research subject of philosophy of technology if contemporary philosophy of technology does not exceed ＂times of capital＂ which it belong to.
