正义共识的困境分析

The Dilemma of Common Sense of Justice

在前现代社会,人们对现存制度和个人行为的评价体系完全陷于意识形态、神圣观念、权力和国家的"信条"中,所以"共识"的霸权给人们并没有造成正义价值观念的明显分裂,共识在前现代社会并不是一个社会和理论问题。进入现代社会以来,社会的结构转型,现代化对传统的挑战,利益日趋分化,多元社会的形成,阶级、阶层结构的复杂化和分化,新旧全球化的转型,文明与文化的冲突及意识形态的分歧,使得正义的共识成为一个重要的难题。

In pre-modem societies, the evaluation system for the existing systems and individual＇s behavior was completely controlled by ideology, sacred conceptions, and the creed of power and state. Therefore, the hegemony of ＂common sense＂ didn＇t cause the evident divergence among people＇s value on justice, which means that common sense was neither a social nor theoretical issue. However, in modern society, along with the social structure transformation and the challenged proposed by modernization on tradition, pluralistic society began to take shape, the structure of classes and stratums became complicated and diverged, and the conflicts between civilization and culture were revealed. All these factors have rendered the common sense of justice into a dilemma.
