摘要
斯蒂格勒哲学的中心命题之一是“技术创造人”。基于勒儒瓦-古汉的工作,他为此提供了古人类学论证。首先,斯蒂格勒提出“后种系发生”概念,用以刻画人的非生物学遗传过程,其载体是技术。其次,通过回顾人类进化史,他指出直立行走和工具的使用促进了人的进化。再次,技术的进化与人的进化是耦合关系。工具既反映大脑皮层的分化,也推动着后者。最后,“技术生态位”概念进一步为“后种系发生”提供了支持。总之,人是技术的产儿,这就是技术助产术。
One of the most important propositions developed by Bernard Stiegler is that technology invents human beings,which is based on AndréLeroi-Gourhan’s work to provide a paleoanthropological argument.First,Stiegler forges the concept of epiphylogenesis to describe the non-biological genetic process of human beings,and its carrier is technology.Second,he points out that the erect position and the use of tools facilitated the evolution of homo sapiens.Third,the evolution of technology and the evolution of human beings are coupling,and tools not only reflect the differentiation of cerebral cortex,but also promote the latter.Finally,technological nichécould further support the thought of epiphylogenesis.In conclusion,human beings are the products of technology,which acts as a midwife in the evolution of human beings.
