摘要

摘要:本文分析了最近两部德国小说,Theresa Hannig的《Die Optimierer》和Marc Uwe Kling的《QualityLand》,关于它们对经历数据化和自动化过程的社会的描述,并认为所描绘的社会在与社交媒体的互动中是高度个性化的,而不是符合反个人主义的更常见的反乌托邦愿景。尽管这两部小说中的政治和经济制度功能不同,但都声称已经存在的监视资本主义将进一步根深蒂固,工具主义权力结构将被建立,以塑造公民的行为,为制度的利益服务。文章将这些小说解读为对自动化和算法控制过程增强的工具主义机制的警告。

Optimize Your Life! Work, Automation, and Instrumentarianism in Contemporary German Utopian Literature
abstract:The article analyzes two recent German novels, Die Optimierer by Theresa Hannig and QualityLand by Marc-Uwe Kling, regarding their depiction of societies undergoing datafication and automation processes and argues that instead of conforming to more common dystopian visions as anti-individualist, the depicted societies are highly individualized in their engagement with social media. Even though the political and economic systems in both novels function differently, both claim that the already existing surveillance capitalism will be further entrenched and that instrumentarian power structures will be established to shape the behavior of citizens for the system's benefits. The article reads the novels as warnings against instrumentarian mechanisms that are enhanced by processes of automation and algorithmic control.
