The Alienation Risk of Widespread Mechanization in Social Landscapes and its Resolution Path——A Critical Examination based on Marx's View of Machines

In the era of digitalization and intelligence, the trend of mechanization has gradually penetrated into various fields of society, forming a widespread social phenomenon. The ubiquity of this phenomenon has led to the mechanization transformation of natural environment, urban environment, cultural environment, and social interaction modes, thereby triggering numerous alienation risks. Marx's view on machines reveals the logical basis of these alienation phenomena, with the core lying in the contradictory conflict between labor and capital relations triggered by the rise of the machine system. This theory does not exceed the theoretical scope of Marxism, but rather provides solid theoretical support for addressing the alienation issues caused by the widespread mechanization of social landscapes. To address this alienation challenge, it is necessary to reconstruct capital logic, break the monopoly of machines, and reshape a green and diverse social landscape; seek a balance between technological progress and machine dependence, enhance humanistic care in social landscapes; reshape cultural concepts, eliminate blind worship of machines, and promote the formation of aesthetic diversity in social landscapes; strengthen interpersonal interaction, balance machine rationality, and build a socially connected social landscape; reform ownership structure, achieve sharing of machine resources, and promote fairness and harmony in social landscapes.
