Abstract

Abstract This paper analyzes the treatment of nature and technology in the writings of two prominent early Zionist thinkers, A. D. Gordon and Theodor Herzl. At the heart of Herzl’s vision, we find technocrats applying industrial systems to dominate the naked nature that Gordon is committed to preserve. Gordon, in contrast, describes Jewish national revival as triggered by farmers utilizing Eretz Israel’s natural world to extract Jews from industrial society, underwriting Herzl’s Zionist vision. Expanding the analysis to the domains of nature and technology reveals the two thinkers’ creeds to be rival Zionist ideologies in which nature and technology serve as catalysts for competing visions of national revival.
农民与技术官僚:戈登与赫茨尔关于自然与技术的比较分析
本文分析了两位杰出的早期犹太复国主义思想家戈登和赫茨尔的作品中对自然和技术的处理。在赫茨尔的愿景的核心,我们发现技术官僚应用工业系统来支配戈登致力于保护的裸露的自然。相比之下,戈登将犹太民族复兴描述为由农民利用以色列的自然世界将犹太人从工业社会中抽离而引发的,这支持了赫茨尔的犹太复国主义愿景。将分析扩展到自然和技术领域,揭示了两位思想家的信条是敌对的犹太复国主义意识形态,其中自然和技术作为民族复兴的竞争愿景的催化剂。
