引“声音/发声”入媒介社会学——尼克·库尔德利“声音/发声”观及其理论意义

Introducing “voice” into media sociology: On Nick Couldry’s view of “voice” and its theoretical significance

尼克·库尔德利的媒介社会学,以重新概念化了的"声音/发声"概念为起始点,通过把"人-媒介-声音/发声"连接成为一个闭环,奠定了媒介社会学的本体论理论基础,同时通过把"声音"安置在"实践-叙事-伦理"的逻辑链环上,构筑了媒介社会学规范理论的伦理学使命和政治学使命,最终建构了一个由本体论哲学、话语权社会学和媒介正义伦理三方面组成的媒介规范理论体系。这一理论体系的建构逻辑及其"声音/发声"观,对于试图突破新自由主义传播话语困境的中国特色政治传播理论的建设来说,具有重要的借鉴意义。

Re-conceptualizing the concept of"voice"is the starting point of Nick Couldry’s media sociology;Connecting person-medium-voice into a closed loop reconstructs the modern subjectivity of communication studies and lays the foundation for the ontological theory of media sociology;Putting the"voice"in the logic link of"practice-narrative-ethics"builds the ethical and political mission of formative theories of media sociology.Thus,a theory system,composed of ontology philosophy,sociology of discourse rights and media justice ethics,is finally constructed.The constructing logic of this theory system and the view of"voice"involved will be heuristic for the construction of the Political Communication Theory with Chinese characteristics which tries to beak the discourse dilemma of neoliberalism communication.
