چکیده

نوشتار با انتخاب فناوری‌های نوین و تأمل فلسفی چندجانبه‌نگر نسبت به مفهوم آن، به‌مثابه نقطه آغاز در مسئله، قدم در مسیر می‌نهد. سپس به تأثیر فناوری بر زندگی آدمی پرداخته و از دل آن مسئله‌مندی بن‌مایه‌ای را شکوفا می‌سازد. چنانکه که این موضوع بر یکی از بن‌مایه‌های اندیشه‌ای در حوزه مکاتب حقوقی اقتصادی چپ و راست پیوند می‌خورد. از این‌رو تلاش می‌شود مفهوم کار و طبقه کارگر بازخوانی شده و تأثیر فناوری‌های نوین بر لایه‌های بنیادین و زیرین مفهومی و فلسفی آشکار شود. سپس به تأثیر این مفاهیم بر امر دانش حقوق نگاهی انداخته می‌شود و از دل آن نوری به تضاد مفهومی مسئله انداخته و به این پرسش پاسخ داده می‌شود که فناوری‌های نوین چه تأثیری بر مفهوم طبقه کارگر می‌گذارند؟ این امر نیازمند به بند تعریف کشیدن مفهوم کار از دل تفکرات فلسفی متفکران و اندیشمندان بزرگ این حوزه است. از نتایج مهم تحقیق می‌توان به خوانشی جدید به مفهوم کارگر و کار اشاره نمود و آنکه تأثیر فناوری‌های نوین سبب استثمار کارگر نخواهد بود. این نوشتار با استفاده از روش توصیفی و تحلیلی نوشته شده است.

چکیده [English]

Introduction

The present study aimed to examine the impact of modern technologies on the concept of the working class by adopting a systemic perspective and focusing on the relationship between technology and certain legal concepts. The central premise of this research is that technology, as a transformative factor, can directly influence social structures and drive changes in fundamental concepts such as labor and the worker. The study tried to introduce key concepts and provide an overview of various types of modern technologies, including AI, machine learning, robotic process automation, virtual reality, and the Internet of Things. The analysis also traced the historical evolution of the working class from the Industrial Revolution to the information and digital age. The study went on to analyze philosophical concepts related to labor and the working class, highlighting how Marxist perspectives and other philosophical theories have shaped the understanding of legal notions of labor. The argument relied on a critical analysis of traditional notions of labor and the role of the worker in society, demonstrating their influence on labor conditions and legislation across different social contexts.

Literature Review

There are a few works dedicated to the role of modern technology in human labor. Notable examples include “The Impact of Information Technology on Improving Human Performance” (Manouchehri & Mohammadi-Zeitouni, 2021) and “The Effect of Production Technology on Production Competitive Capabilities and the Improvement of Business Performance” (Pooya, 2015). However, there appears to be a significant gap in the literature regarding the relationship between modern technology and human labor.

Materials and Methods

The present study relied on a descriptive–analytical methodology grounded in systemic thinking, and the data was collected from library sources.

Results and Discussion

The analysis yielded a new interpretation of the concepts of the worker and labor (or work), highlighting that the impact of modern technologies does not necessarily lead to the exploitation of workers. Drawing on concrete examples from urban contexts in both West and East Germany, the research explored architectural and social differences arising from creativity and freedom, which serve as symbols of technology’s impact on workers’ lives and labor. The findings demonstrated that modern technologies, while often associated with industrial transformation and the emergence of new technological sectors, do not merely exploit nature. Rather, they influence all aspects of human society. By carefully examining architectural structures and their evolution after the reunification of Germany, the current inquiry argues that modern technologies have played a significant role in social assimilation as well as cultural and societal changes. These changes have affected not only workers’ conditions but also the biological and cultural patterns of society more broadly. Moreover, reducing technology to a mere tool risks limiting our understanding of its impact on human life. A comprehensive analysis must consider broader dimensions, including the ways in which governments define and redefine power in relation to technological development. Technology affects not only industry and production but also all dimensions of human life. Consequently, modern technologies cannot be regarded solely as a negative phenomenon

Conclusion

Profound changes brought about by modern technologies in human societies have exposed the shortcomings of traditional approaches to understanding the concepts of the worker and labor. According to the findings, these transformations will not eliminate the labor force but will instead reshape the nature of their labor. From a philosophical and ideological perspective, the analysis suggests that new technologies can contribute to the growth and development of both society and workers. To better understand these changes and develop effective strategies to address them, it is necessary to reconsider traditional concepts and adopt new perspectives, such as systems thinking and quantitative approaches.
