现代文化之技术本质——基于海德格尔的观点

The Technological Essence of Modern Culture in Heidegger's View

海德格尔认为,现代技术的本质是"座架",是一种世界的构造,它与传统技术有着本质区别。传统技术受文化的约束和支配,而现代技术反过来构造、支配文化。导致技术与文化关系发生历史性转变的根本原因是形而上学自身的发展,现代技术是"完成的形而上学"。

Heidegger claims that the essence of modern technology is a kind of ＂Gestell＂ as well as construction of the world, which makes it different in essence from traditional one. Traditional technology is not only confined in but also controlled by the culture, while the modern one contrarily construct and dominate culture. The root reason for the historical transition of the relationship between technology and culture is the development of metaphysic itself in that modern technology is the ＂completed metaphysic＂.
