The Dual Dimensions of Marcuse’s View of Science and Technology Are Combined with Reality —Based on “Eros and Civilization”

爱欲与文明,在马尔库塞的笔下不再成为不可相容的两部分,如何实现爱欲的解放以使个人重回无忧无虑的乐天之境,关键在于文明是否能同个体爱欲的解放同向而行。在马尔库塞的科技观中,科技进步既是个体得到普遍满足的必然要求,又是创造额外压抑的元凶祸首;科技进步既是社会走向幻想中的“乌托邦”的必经之路,又是为“乌托邦”所极力否定之所在。科技至于爱欲就犹如一把双刃剑,用好它未来就可以斩断禁锢爱欲的锁链,用不好就会成为套在肩上的爱欲枷锁。所以,本文借助马尔库塞的科技观对现今科技发展的迷茫进行解答,旨在让科技成为爱欲腾飞的翅膀。In Marcuse’s perspective, love and desire are no longer incompatible with civilization. The key to achieving the liberation of love and desire and allowing individuals to return to a carefree and optimistic state lies in whether civilization can move in the same direction as the liberation of individual love and desire. In Marcuse’s view of technology, technological progress is both an inevitable requirement for the universal satisfaction of individuals and the culprit that creates additional repression; it is both the necessary path for society to reach the “utopia” of fantasy and the very thing that is vehemently denied by “utopia”. Technology in relation to love and desire is like a double-edged sword. If used well, it can sever the chains that bind love and desire in the future; if not, it will become a love and desire shackle on the shoulders. Therefore, this article uses Marcuse’s view of technology to answer the confusion about the current development of technology, aiming to make technology the wings for the soaring of love and desire.

Abstract

爱欲与文明,在马尔库塞的笔下不再成为不可相容的两部分,如何实现爱欲的解放以使个人重回无忧无虑的乐天之境,关键在于文明是否能同个体爱欲的解放同向而行。在马尔库塞的科技观中,科技进步既是个体得到普遍满足的必然要求,又是创造额外压抑的元凶祸首;科技进步既是社会走向幻想中的“乌托邦”的必经之路,又是为“乌托邦”所极力否定之所在。科技至于爱欲就犹如一把双刃剑,用好它未来就可以斩断禁锢爱欲的锁链,用不好就会成为套在肩上的爱欲枷锁。所以,本文借助马尔库塞的科技观对现今科技发展的迷茫进行解答,旨在让科技成为爱欲腾飞的翅膀。In Marcuse’s perspective, love and desire are no longer incompatible with civilization. The key to achieving the liberation of love and desire and allowing individuals to return to a carefree and optimistic state lies in whether civilization can move in the same direction as the liberation of individual love and desire. In Marcuse’s view of technology, technological progress is both an inevitable requirement for the universal satisfaction of individuals and the culprit that creates additional repression; it is both the necessary path for society to reach the “utopia” of fantasy and the very thing that is vehemently denied by “utopia”. Technology in relation to love and desire is like a double-edged sword. If used well, it can sever the chains that bind love and desire in the future; if not, it will become a love and desire shackle on the shoulders. Therefore, this article uses Marcuse’s view of technology to answer the confusion about the current development of technology, aiming to make technology the wings for the soaring of love and desire.
