吕尔的技术社会 fromgaze2014-08-28 04:08:50

被自己创造的技术所包围后人类发现自己已经“无路可逃”。他们不能再刺破技术的蛋壳寻找祖先用了几十万年的时间才适应的生活环境。今天在我们的城市里早已不再有白天黑夜、冷热之别。而有的只是人口过剩，媒体和电视带来的奴役、和一切意义的全盘丧失。人类被来自自身之外的力量和目的所捆绑着。越是科技不断的发达给我们提供脱离对自然的必然依赖，我们越是受制于人造科技的必须。

——雅克埃吕尔， 当代法国哲学家， 《技术社会》，1957





"Enclosed within his artificial creation, man finds that there is “no exit”; that he cannot pierce the shell of technology again to find the ancient milieu to which he was adapted for hundreds of thousands of years… . In our cities there is no more day or night or heat or cold. But there is overpopulation, thralldom to press and television, total absence of purpose. All men are constrained by means external to them to ends equally external. The further the technical mechanism develops that allows us to escape natural necessity, the more we are subjected to artificial technical necessities."

- Jacques Ellul，The Technological Society， 1957

好好享受现代化的好处，让哲学家去解决害处：）
