Abstract

This paper attempts to show how Adorno’s thought can illuminate our reflections on the future of work. It does so by situating Adorno’s conception of genuine activity in relation to his negativist critical epistemology and his subtle account of the distinction between true and false needs. What emerges is an understanding of work that can guide our aspirations for the future of work, and one we illustrate via discussions of creative work and care work. These are types of work which cater to persistent human needs, albeit ones that are distorted under present social conditions. Adorno’s thought helps us to understand why this is the case.

需求、创造力和关怀：阿多诺与工作的未来

本文试图展示阿多诺的思想如何照亮我们对未来工作的思考。这是通过将阿多诺的真正活动概念与他的否定主义批判认识论以及他对真实和虚假需求之间区别的微妙描述联系起来实现的。出现的是对工作的理解，可以指导我们对未来工作的渴望，我们通过对创造性工作和护理工作的讨论来说明这一点。这些类型的工作满足了人类持续的需求，尽管在当前的社会条件下被扭曲了。阿多诺的思想帮助我们理解为什么会出现这种情况。
