摘要
巨机器是刘易斯·芒福德技术哲学思想的核心概念。芒福德用该概念对现代社会的本质和现代人生活状态进行了总的概括,也由此揭示出现代技术的起源及本质。芒福德探讨了巨机器的历史渊源,并指出与巨机器密切相关的是"巨技术"和"战争机器",而古代巨机器的现代复活是和世界大战的刺激和催化分不开的,巨机器是对人性的巨大摧残和损害:巨机器漠视生命,让现代人沦为"组织化的人"、"可替代的人"和"孤独的人群",理想中的"机器的人性化"变成了"机器化的人"。
Megamachine is a core concept of Lewis Mumford＇s philosophy of technology, through which he summarizes the essence of modern society as well as the living conditions of modern men, and reveals the origins and nature of modern technology. Mumford explores the historical development of megamachine, and points out that megamachine is closely related to megatechnics and war machines. As a modern version of ancient megamachines and a product of the two world wars, megamaehines have inflicted tremendous destruction and harm to humanity, which ignore life and turn modern people into organized men, replaceable men and lonely crowds. Moreover, mechanized men have become a reality rather than the humanization of machines.
