公共领域视野下的网络论坛研究

Research on internet forum in the background of public sphere

网络论坛因其自身的技术特征被众多的学者认为是构建理想公共领域的良好平台。本文引入"公共领域"理论,在分析"公共领域"构成要素的基础上,将网络论坛置于传播学、政治学与社会学框架中,并结合"重庆钉子户"事件,对强国论坛、网易、天涯杂谈三个不同类型的网络论坛中关于此事的言论进行分析,在此基础上得出结论:网络论坛呈现"公共领域"的雏形,但与"公共领域"还存在很大差距,无论是官方型网站、商业型网站还是在民间型网站都无法承担构建理想"公共领域"的重任,而且网络论坛中,"理性精神的欠缺"、"广泛参与和有效对话之间的二难"、"共识与民意的差距"、"知识分子与网络论坛中话语霸权的呈现"等都是网络技术自身无法克服的困难,也是构建理想公共领域的"瓶颈"。

Some experts believe that internet forum relying on its technical characteristics will become a good platform of construtting an ideal public sphere. In the theoretical frame of communication, sociology and political science, this thesis researches ＂public sphere＂ theory , analyzes the elements , makes a content analysis about ＂Chongqing Ding -Zi -Hu＂ event among Net Ease, Qiangguo Forum and Tianya forum . Based on this ,it makes a conclusion that interuet forum is the prototype of ＂public sphere＂, but there is a big gap between internet forum and ＂public sphere＂. Regardless of the official website, a business website or the civil - construction site can not afford the mission of constructing an ideal public sphere. The technology of Internet Forum is not able to overcome some difficulties including of ＂the lack of rational spirit＂, ＂the contradictions of broad participation and effective dialogue＂, ＂the gap between public opinion and consensus＂, and ＂intellectuals and hegemonie discourse＂, which is also the bottleneck of constructing an ideal public sphere.
