Study On Technological Alienation And Its Psychological And Social Mechanisms

The ever-changing science and technology greatly promoted the development of productive forces and promoted the institutional change the transformation of society and human survival. Consequently, technology already becomes an integral part of social development. But the invention of technology and large-scale use leads to ecological imbalance and other phenomena so that people suffer from "discipline" of technology, the loss of individual autonomy and they become one-sided man who attached to the machine’s. These researchers criticized the alienation and technology has become the object of criticism in many schools concentrated. They directed the target technology, emphazed on technology that resulted in the loss of human values by instrumental rationality depression. Many schools from a rational perspective emphasizes the technology of human alienation, which has sufficient critical thinking. But they selectively observed the developed countries, ignoring the expense of other countries, particularly developing countries, and people’s living conditions.They tends to ignore the value of the technological utopia of social progress and a positive value, with an obvious selective criticism. So schools can’t survive for a long time because of a clear theoretical limitations. Firstly, they, under the protection of Marxism, try to find a new breakthrough in the critique of alienation process, thereby establishing a ideal society of no alienation. They simply believe that the elimination of private ownership will largely eliminate alienation, but they do not consider private ownership and market economy, promoting economic and social development role. That is, if you do not figure out the nature of alienation, they will be caught in capitalism- technology- the logic of alienation. Secondly, they attempt to make us of the tools to deny return of human values and emotional appeal, but they did not identify the relative value. They simply blamed the alienation of technology, while ignoring the important role of technology on human development. Thirdly, researchers should pay attention to the instrumental rationality behind the expanding human limitations and the growing desire of humanity itself, which is the fundamental problem.In view of this, the present study discuss the framework of technological alienation and alienation. From the height of human civilization, according to the Theory of structural functionalism, researchers face alienation of technical nature and technical potential function. We also combine and analyze literature to study several types of alienation such as the alienation of civilization, religious alienation, rational alienation and so forth. Technology is derived from the alienation of human infinite human needs, as well as over-reliance on superstition and they want to find some single way out of trouble so that they make use of a technical tool to create an ideal world. However, they are confined to the limitations of human so they obtained insurmountable thing. Psychological mechanism of technology alienation rooted in the power of human needs through individual ignorance, unconscious rise to collective delusion and worship and even imitate, intensified by external social division of labor and market exchange technology to accelerate human alienation.The nature of technological alienation roots in the performance of human dependence on technology products and technology services and even human performance technology superstition. Based on its own human desire, they make the use of various techniques and tools beyond their own trying to build civilizationand because of the ignorance of the individual, collective unconscious, human beings had to give up their full development to become a One-Dimensional Man, because of the limitations of humanity itself. Consequences of technological alienationmainly reflected in the people, nature and society at three levels: the level of performance of this man and his instrumentalization; performance on the natural level; performance technology on the social dimension of social life.Alienation is the result of free human choice and it is the result of rationality. The technique can not go beyond alienation, which is a social fact. It must be accompanied by the development of human civilization. Humans recognize their own limitations and ignorance, by re-understanding of instrumental rationality and value rationality, emphasising on human freedom and creativity, restoring the centrality of human society and strengthening solidarity and sense of belonging to weaken technology alienation of man.
