摘要
技术实体理论包含于西方哲学传统中,并以常识化的技术工具论渗透于技术决策、实践和文化发展中。对西方哲学与技术相关联的实体概念历史进行考察表明,从亚里士多德、笛卡儿到黑格尔和卡普,西方哲学传统维系着一种对技术的实体理论解释或描述,并从自然摹写达到了身体摹写的高度。进一步分析,我们看到,技术实体理论的主要原则在于,技术作为独立的实体存在,采取理性模式,不仅要求自身的价值中立,而且能够确保技术进步具有可预测性。以此来看待后人类主义,所谓后人类的"技术奇点"预测,不过是设想了超人类智能的"技术实体"。当然这仅仅是就技术的积极社会影响而言的,如果考虑其负面价值,技术实体理论便不得不面临科林格里奇的"控制困境":一项技术的社会结果无法在其生命早期预测,等到发现其消极后果时,对它的控制又极端困难。为了摆脱这种困境,需要突破技术实体理论为科学、技术与社会设置的各种传统边界,进而提出新的技术哲学理论方向,此即对技术实体理论进行归置的意义所在。
The entity theory of technology contains in the tradition of western philosophy, technology tool theo-ry, as common sense, infiltrates the process of technical decision, practice and cultural development.Observing the history of related entity concept of western philosophy and technology, it shows, from Aristotle, Descartes to Hegel and Karp, the western philosophical tradition maintains a explanation or description of technical entity theo-ry, and from the natural depiction to the height of body depiction.By further analysis, we believe that the main principle of the entity theory of technology lies in that technology exists as an independent entity, takes the rational model, it requires not only the value neutrality in itself, but also ensures the predictability of technological pro-gress.To view the posthumanism from such an angle, the so-called prediction of“technological singularity” of post human only envisaged“technology entity” of super human intelligence.Of course, this is only for positive social impact of technology, if the negative value considered, technology will have to face the entity theory Collingridge’ s “control dilemma”:the social results of a technology cannot be predicted early in its life, when its negative con-sequences are found, it is extremely difficult to control it.In order to get out of this dilemma, the various traditional boundary for science, technology and society set by technical entity theory need to break through, and then the new direction of philosophy of technology theory should be put forward.That is the significance for the category of entity theory of technology.
