“思想构境论”想说明什么——答王金福

What Is the Exact Meaning of Intellectual Situating Theory——A Reply to Professor Wang Jinfu

王金福教授对《回到列宁》一书的批评,其实质是试图将已经超越了解释学语境中的后文本学讨论重新拉回到现代性文本学中。王金福不能理解的地方,是在后现代文本语境中,恰恰是承认认知结果的有限性和主观性,才会反证一种历史性的客观性和真理性,这种新的客观性与真理性正是当代哲学和科学认识论的积极反思的结果。然而,《回到列宁》一书在"构境论"基本观点的表述上存在着一个重要的逻辑缺环,即它与历史唯物主义的逻辑衔接。实际上,"构境"理论并没有放弃马克思历史唯物主义的基本立场,或者倒过来说,历史唯物主义恰恰是"构境论"的重要逻辑前提。当然,对历史唯物主义的当代诠释,有可能为"构境论"提供一个重要的现实性基础。

The critique of Back to Lenin by Prof. Wang Jinfu is to put the post-textology discussion which goes beyond the hermeneutics back to the modernist textology in the final goal. What Prof. Wang missed is that, in the post-modernist textological studies it is only to recognize there is limit and subjectivity in reading firstly that the objectivity and truth could be found, which derives from the latest progress in the contemporary philosophy and scientific epistemology studies. Anyway, it should be admitted that there is a logic break in the presentation of situating theory in Back to Lenin, which is its correlation with historical materialism. In fact, situating theory never quit the basic standpoint of Marxist historical materialism, and it could even be assumed that historical materialism is the significant logical premise of situating theory. And the contemporary interpretation of historical materialism could supply an important actual base for situating theory.
