Study on Fromm’s Thoughts about the Humanization of Technological Society [弗洛姆技术社会人道化思想研究], Master thesis, Science and Technology Philosophy, Inner Mongolia University, Hohhot, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, China 2004, 36 pp.

  • 弗洛姆是德裔美籍著名思想家,毕生致力于揭露和批判发达工业社会、技术社会给人带来的种种弊端,认为目前的技术社会是一个病态的社会,病态的根源在于技术所导致的社会的非人道化的发展,而要促成一个健全的社会,首先要将技术重新置于人的控制之下。因此,对人性的挖掘和技术的批判就成了弗洛姆人道主义伦理学的重要组成部分。1968年出版的THE REVOLUTION OF HOPE—Toward a Humanized Technology(《希望的革命——通向人道化的技术》)一书对这种技术批判理论做了系统的论述,从心理学和社会学的角度对当时的技术社会进行了深刻地剖析。这种从心理学角度研究技术的方式为技术哲学的研究开辟了新的方向和途径。本文主要通过对THE REVOLUTION OF HOPE—Toward a Humanized Technology的深入研究,来分析弗洛姆的这一思想。从分析技术社会的现状入手,描述技术社会对人的影响及其非人道化的表现,进而分析技术社会非人道化的原因,最后提出实现技术社会人道化的步骤。弗洛姆技术人道化思想的最终目的,是促成一个以人的福祉、人的自由、人的全面发展为最高目标的>健全的社会<(the sane society)
  • Fromm, as a world-famous thinker, born in Frankfurt, German, devoted his whole life in exposing and criticizing various disadvantages coming from industrial society and technological society. He maintained that it was a morbid society which based in the inhumane development of technological society. If we want to develop a sane society, the first thing we should do is to control the technology by human himself. So, the excavation to human nature and the criticism to technology were the main components of Fromm’s humanistic ethics. In >The Revolution of Hope – Toward a Humanized Technology<, published in 1968, he discussed this theory in details from the angle of psychology and sociology. This is a new method of philosophy of technology studying. During studying Fromm’s thoughts, firstly, analyzing the conditions of technological society, describing the influence of technological society to human, and then analyzing the reasons of this inhumane, at last, he put forward the steps to the humanization. The main goal of Fromm’s thought was to develop a sane society which highest target was human’s well-being, freedom and whole development. [Author’s translation]
