马克思哲学与后现代理论话语

The Marxian Philosophy and the Post-Modern Theoretical Discourse

本文认为, 20世纪西方哲学的诸多重大转向,不仅仅是某一哲学流派或某一哲学理论的转向,而是一个时代所特有的理论范式的转换,即从现代性理论范式向后现代性理论范式的转换。马克思所开启的新的哲学思维方式,是西方当代哲学范式变革转换的重要思想来源。马克思哲学与后现代理论话语均处于这一范式变革与转换的整体时代背景之中。正是在这一背景中,两者发生着或隐或显的内在关联;离开西方当代哲学范式转换的整体背景,就难以认清马克思哲学变革的真实内容与意蕴,也难以看清马克思哲学与后现代理论之间的历史关联;因而,也就无法理解马克思哲学的时代超越性,无法认识马克思哲学对后现代理论题域所提出的诸多问题仍然具有的重要理论意义与价值。

This paper holds that many important turns in 20th century western philosophy are not only the turns of a certain philosophical school or theory, but those of the specific theoretical paradigm of a time, that is, the transformation from modern theoretical paradigm to the post-modern. The new way of philosophical thinking initiated by Marx is the major ideological source of these transformations. Marxian philosophy and post-modern theoretical discourse are in the same historical background of this change, and it is in this background that the two are more or less inter-related. Out of the holistic context of paradigmatic changes of contemporary western philosophy, it is difficult for us to recognize the real content and meaning of changes in Marxian philosophy as well as the historical connection between Marxian philosophy and post-modernity, and therefore, it is difficult to understand the eternal value of Marxian philosophy, and therefore difficult to understand the important theoretical meaning and value of many questions that Marxian philosophy raised to post-modern theory.
