哈贝马斯“市民社会”理论探析

Analysis on the Theory of Habermas's Civil Society

哈贝马斯对当代市民社会理论做出过突出贡献。通过前后相继的两个阶段,哈贝马斯将"公共领域"和"生活世界"两个描绘资本主义不同时期图景的独特概念引入对市民社会理论的讨论,开启了市民社会理论研究的新视角,也使我们对资本主义国家有了更深入、全面的认识。但由于其特定的历史条件和时代背景,其理论本身也存在许多固有的缺陷。

H＇abermas is the people who are outstanding in civil society theory at contemporary. Through sequential two stages, Habermas introduces two special conception such as ＂public sphere＂ and ＂life world＂ to argument civil society theory, which portray the picture of different stage of capitalism. This theory unseals the new sight of researching civil society theory, and meanwhile, make us to recognize the contemporary capitalism deeply and thoroughly. But because of the spoeial history and era background, his theory it- self has also many inherent defect.
