当代实践哲学中的承认理论

The Theory of Recognition in Contemporary Practical Philosophy

"承认"是德国古典哲学中的一个重要概念,它最初的理论形态是由费希特和黑格尔奠定的。随着近几十年来实践哲学的复兴,"承认"理论在当代语境中针对各种现实问题,发展出了不同的理论形态,主要包括:作为自主的个人之间相互尊重的承认理论,关于个体的身份或者本真性的承认理论,以及作为多元文化共同体之存在基础的承认理论。"承认"作为当代实践哲学的主要原则具有重要的现实意义,同时也有其局限性。

Recognition is an important concept of German philosophy, with its early framework founded by Fichte and Hegel. With the revival of practical philosophy in these decades, the theory of recognition has developed some different frameworks to answer the problems in the contemporary context. These frameworks include： 1） recognition as mutual respect between autonomous persons, 2） recognition concerning the development of identity or authenticity and 3） recognition between groups of different worldviews and cultures in a multicultural community. Recognition as the principle of contemporary practical philosophy is very meaningful, while its limitation should not be ignored.
