浅论工具性劳动作为满足人们工具性需要手段的合理性

Preliminary Analysis of the Rationality of Instrumental Labor as a Means of Meeting People'Instrumental Needs

工具性劳动作为人所特有的活动不断地为人们提供生存的物质资料,并且不断地满足着人们建立在物质生产活动基础上的工具性需要。但我们应看到,这种活动作为人之为人的根本性活动,在不断使人们的生活质量提升的同时也在使人陷入自我的茫然窘境,它使人以一种开化了的工具理性的态度面对生活,这种执着于现实、听命于标准、服务于机器的状态使人在一定程度上达成了人的幸福追求,却在更大程度上使人的欲望犹如一匹脱了缰的野马般无止境延伸。然而,当我们反思生活之时,我们就会感到工具性劳动与工具性需要相互作用所产生的巨大推动力以及它的不可或缺性,这也就是我在思考这个问题时所持的观点:工具性劳动作为满足人们工具性需要的手段是合理的。

Instrumental labor,as a unique activity of human being,provides people with material and meets the needs of the people continuously on the basis of material production activities. But we should see,such activities,as the human being＇s fundamental activities,continue to make people＇s life quality improve,at the same time make people fall into the oblivious dilemma,they make people face life in a civilized and rational attitude.This attachment to the reality and the standards,the state of serving the machine make people achieve happiness to a certain extent,but to a greater degree the desire of people extend endlessly like the horse without the control of the reins. However,when we reflect on life,we will recognize the tremendous and indispensable impetus generated by the interaction between instrumental labor and need. This is how I think about this question： the fact is that instrumental labor,as the means of satisfying people＇s instrumental need,is reasonable.
