摘 要： 马克思对市场合理性的批判、卢卡奇对科学知识合理性的批判和海德格尔的技术座架理论，在马尔库塞那里发展成了一种技术的合理性批评，目的是在功能化占优势的技术理解中恢复意义的地位。当代技术哲学家伯格曼和辛普森，在后期海德格尔的影响下，也力图完成同样的任务。但这些方案都没成功。通过分析当代信息技术发展中用户自发改进技术的案例，可以发现，人们对技术的创新行动展现了从功能化中重新找回意义的可能。这种行动正是海德格尔眼中此在的原真的行动。

Function and Meaning: The Double Aspects of Technology
Andrew Feenberg
Abstract: This paper traces the theoretical background to the split between function and meaning in the modernity theories of Marx, Lukács, Weber and Marcuse. It then discusses attempts to overcome the split in the recent philosophies of technology of Simpson and Borgmann. These attempts fail but help to focus the issue. A discussion of contemporary struggles over information technology offers a more hopeful perspective on a possible resolution of the split and suggests a new look at Heidegger’s phenomenology of action. The conclusion of the paper shows that Heidegger offers resources for addressing the relation of function and meaning which he himself did not develop.
Key words: function; meaning; action; H. Marcuse; M. Heidegger
