霸权、话语、认同与伊斯兰——评《西方霸权语境中的阿拉伯—伊斯兰问题研究》

Hegemony,Discourse,Identity and Islam:A Book Review Arab-Islamic Problem Research in the Western Hegemonic Context

上海外国语大学中东研究所马丽蓉教授的新著《西方霸权语境中的阿拉伯—伊斯兰问题研究》,沿着从霸权到话语霸权再到认同的逻辑思路,辅以对西方"东方主义"心理状态的分析,对西方霸权语境之下的阿拉伯—伊斯兰问题进行了深刻的论述。对于以中东为核心的阿拉伯—伊斯兰世界的争夺和控制是西方霸权的重要体现,霸权必然发展为对话语权的争夺以获得话语霸权,从而形成以妖魔化伊斯兰为特征的"遮蔽的伊斯兰"。霸权与话语霸权的争夺是深层的认同政治的表现,如何在文明对话和文化自觉的基础上进行认同重构,则是当前包括阿拉伯—伊斯兰文明在内的各大文明体系面临的重大挑战。

Dr. Ma Lirong, professor of the Center for Middle Eastern Studies, Shanghai International Studies University, discusses the issues of Western hegemony, discourse hegemony, identity politics, and Edward Saidg key concepts of Orientalism and Covering Islam in her new publication Arab-Islamic Problem Research in the Western Hegemonic Context. To gain the dominant role in the Arab-Islamic World with the Middle East as its nucleus is one of the most important aspects of Western hegemony, which will naturally lead to endeavors to gain a dominant power of narrative or discourse hegemony. The struggle for hegemony and discourse hegemony is considered to be a part of identity politics by some scholars, so the reconstruction of identity on the basis of the dialogue between civilizations and cultural consciousness is the one of the most serious challenges facing all the civilization systems including ArabIslamic civilization.
