PM2.5事件与中国绿色公共领域的形成

PM2.5 Event and the Formation of a Green Public Sphere in China

绿色公共领域在一个国家的环境传播中起到重要作用。然而对中国公众来说,绿色公共领域还是一个相对新的概念。本文将论证在中国绿色公共领域的形成过程中,2011年发生在北京的PM2.5事件扮演着十分重要的角色。首先,我们将回顾上述PM2.5事件的一些细节并讨论绿色公共领域的基本理论。其次,我们将通过分析与主题相关的公共观点的形成、公众自由获取信息的权利、自由组织和参加会议、自由辩论等等来研究PM2.5事件在中国绿色公共领域形成过程中的作用。最后,我们提出绿色公共领域有复杂的扇区结构和分层特性。

A green public sphere is important for the free environmental communication in a country. However,this concept is relatively new to the public in China. Here we show that the PM2.5 event in 2011 plays an important role in the formation of a green public sphere in China. First, we review the PM2.5 event in China and the basic theory of green public sphere. Next, we investigate the role of the PM2.5 event in the formation of a green public sphere in China. Finally,we conclude that a green public sphere has complicated structures and is multilayered.
