批判的视境:传媒作为世界(上)——西方传媒批判理论的四个世界

The Critical Perspective:Media as the World——The Four Worlds of Western Media Criticism Theory

对于大众传媒作为世界丰富内涵的阐释,是传媒批判理论始终如一的目标。具体来说,最初是对于大众传媒作为文化世界的发现;继而,是对于大众传媒作为权力世界的发现;然后,是对于大众传媒作为文本世界的发现;最后,是对于大众传媒作为游戏世界的发现,它意味着文化世界、权力世界、文本世界的消解,也意味着全新的传媒世界的即将莅临。

The interpretation of the rich meanings of mass media as the world has been the permanent objective of traditional criticism theory. To be concrete, at the beginning it was the discovery of mass media as a cultural world, then as a power world, then as a textual world, and finally a game world. This means the dissolution of the worlds of culture, power and texts as well as the coming of a brand-new media world.
