基于罗萨加速理论的透明社会批判分析
A Critical Analysis of a Transparent Society Based on Rosa’s Theory of Acceleration

智能算法的普遍运用所带来的直接效果就是社会的“透明”。对于大多数人而言，由算法所塑造的透明社会的显著缺陷在于隐私的泄漏。但在韩炳哲看来，透明社会的实质是在于信息的加速。透明社会本质上是一个加速社会。结合罗萨的加速理论，我们可以发现透明社会的特征符合韦伯所言的工具合理性，其完全适配于资本的生产逻辑。因此，就像韩炳哲所言，透明社会的主要问题不在于隐私的立法保护而在于因生产逻辑而异化的劳动者主体。只有恢复劳动者的主体性地位，透明社会所造成的问题才能够得到根本性解决。
The apparent effect brought about by the widespread use of intelligent algorithms is the “transparency” of society. For most people, the obvious flaw of a transparent society shaped by algorithms is the leakage of privacy. But in the point of Byung-Chul Han’s view, the essence of a transparent society lies in the acceleration of information. A transparent society is essentially an accelerated society. Combined with Rosa’s acceleration theory, we can find that the characteristics of a transparent society are consistent with Weber’s instrumental rationality, which is fully adapted to the production logic of capital. Therefore, as Byung-Chul Han said, the main problem of a transparent society is not the legislative protection of privacy but the labor subject alienated by the logic of production. Only by restoring the subjective status of workers can the problems caused by a transparent society be fundamentally solved.
