摘要:

工作主义意味着工作不仅是经济社会发展所必需的,也是一个人的身份和生活目的的核心,抑或工作本身成为了衡量人生价值和生活意义的唯一尺度。现代社会中,工作主义为高等教育发展提供了不竭的外部动力,也为高等教育促进社会阶层流动赋予了内在合法性。在现代化进程中,随着工作主义的不断蔓延,为就业或工作做准备变成了牢不可破的教育信条,与之相应的工作伦理严重束缚了高等教育发展的想象力,并对教育者和受教育者的身心发展造成了沉重的压力。然而,伴随着技术-经济范式的转换和工作世界的深刻变革,工作危机将不可避免。面向未来,高等教育必须走出工作主义的迷思、超越生产主义的禁锢,积极适应并引领后工作社会发展。

Abstract:

Workism means that work is not only necessary for economic and social development, but also the core of a person's identity and life purpose, or that work itself becomes the only measure of the value and meaning of life. In modern society, workism provides an inexhaustible external driving force for the development of higher education, and also endows it with inherent legitimacy to promote social mobility. In the process of modernization, with the continuous spread of workism, preparing for employment or work has become an unbreakable educational creed, and the corresponding work ethics seriously restrict the imagination of higher education development, and cause heavy pressure on the physical and mental development of educators and learners. However, with the transformation of the technology economy paradigm and profound changes in the work world, a job crisis will be inevitable. Facing the future, higher education must go beyond the principles of excellence and work ethics, actively adapt to and lead the development of the post-work society.

Key words: higher education, workism, work crisis, working society, post-work society
