Abstract

Digital technologies are changing our understanding of ethical emulation. In this article, Matthew Dennis proposes that some social media technologies have given rise to a strikingly new set of ethical ideals, often concerned with the ideal of self-cultivation. While there is relatively little philosophical discussion of these kinds of ideals, Dennis suggests that scrutiny of Friedrich Nietzsche's ethical philosophy offers a guiding account of why the ideal of self-directed character change is important. He concludes by speculating on how the digital affordances of social media technologies will change the way in which ethical exemplars influence future generations.

尼采不合时宜的预言:网络典范与自我修养
数字技术正在改变我们对道德竞赛的理解。在这篇文章中,马修·丹尼斯提出,一些社交媒体技术已经产生了一套惊人的新伦理理想,通常与自我修养的理想有关。虽然关于这类理想的哲学讨论相对较少,但丹尼斯认为,仔细研究弗里德里希·尼采的伦理哲学,可以为解释为什么自我导向的性格改变的理想是重要的提供一个指导性的解释。最后,他推测了社交媒体技术的数字支持将如何改变道德典范影响后代的方式。
