从科学技术的双重功能看历史唯物主义叙述方式的改变

Modification of Narrative Mode of Historical Materialism as Seen in the Two Functions of Science and Technology

传统的历史唯物主义的叙述体系包含着三个理论前设 ,即资源和生产发展的无限性 ;科学技术只具有生产力的功能 ,且历史作用始终是进步的和革命的 ;科学技术不是意识形态。当代西方哲学家对这三个理论前设提出了挑战 ,揭示了科学技术的另一个功能———意识形态功能。当代历史唯物主义的叙述方式应对此做出积极的回应 :一是生态学语境的切入 ;二是对生产力本质和历史作用的重新认定 ;三是对“社会存在决定社会意识”命题的重新阐释 ;

The traditional narrative system of Historical Materialism has three theoretical premises, namely, the infiniteness of resource and production development, the single function of productive force that is always progressive and revolutionary, and the freedom of science and technology from ideology. Contemporary Western philosophers have challenged these three premises and revealed another function of science and technology——science and technology as ideology, invoking changes in the narrative mode of Historical Materialism. First, ecological context joins as a basis of Historical Materialism. Secondly, new lights have been cast on the nature and historical role of productive force. Thirdly, the proposition that “social being determines social consciousness' is re interpreted. And fourthly, the notion of ideology is expressed in a new way.
