摘要
监控资本主义理论是佐伯芙从政治经济学批判视角对资本主义社会中大数据技术运行秩序的图绘与反思。在她看来,大数据技术对资本主义经济秩序造成了深刻的变革,导致了基于监控的数据经济模式的来临,大数据技术与资本主义结合形成了监控资本主义社会。佐伯芙从生产方式和社会关系两个维度对监控资本主义社会展开了深刻的批判。在生产方式批判维度,揭露数据资本家通过无偿占有用户行为剩余,实现监控资本的积累。在社会关系批判维度,指出微观层次上将人异化为数据原材料,宏观层次上工具主义权力形式正在形成。佐伯芙提出了思想深刻、特色鲜明的资本主义条件下大数据技术的政治经济学批判理论,但是其技术决定论倾向需要质疑。
The theory of surveillance capitalism is a description of the bag data social order in the capitalist society proposed by Shoshana Zuboff from the perspective of critique of political economics.According to Zuboff,the big data technology brings deep change to capitalist economic order,leading to a pattern of data economic based on surveillance.The combination of the big data and capitalism develops a surveillance capitalist society.Zuboff criticizes the surveillance capitalist society from two critique dimensions of mode of production and social relations.When criticizes the capitalist mode of production at the age of big data,Zuboff uncovers that by occupying clients’behavioral surplus,data capitalists realize the accumulation of surveillance capital.At the other dimension,she points out that the surveillance capitalism alienates people into data raw materials in a micro-level,and promotes instrumentarian power in a macro-level.The critic theory of big data is deep thinking,while its tendency of technological determinism needed to be reconsidered.
