摘要

Recently, Benjamin Steyn has proposed a novel political spectrum of value where ‘nature’ and ‘technology’ are understood as opposed. The author attempts to provide a metaphysical basis for this spectrum by advocating for the inherent value of technology. However, we regard their argumentation as inadequate, as it fails to substantiate the intrinsic value of technology, instead serves as an interpretive tool for certain images and narratives associated with technologies. From the brief review of the concepts of nature and technology used in the text we offer reasons in favour of the plurality and contingency of technology.
