黑格尔与选择恐惧症

Hegel and Decidophobia

在《逻辑学》中,黑格尔通过尺度、交错线、矛盾、根据、选言判断等范畴分析了主体的选择难题。解决选择困难问题的日常方法,如明确列出选项的优点和缺点、随机选择、避免对选择结果进行比较等,都无法有效缓解选择恐惧。黑格尔则揭示了选择的不可能性,强调选择无论如何都包含任意性和外在性。然而,《逻辑学》也为人们提供了应对选择困难的原则,如认真评价过去的选择、诉诸更高级别的范畴和问题等。

In Logic , Hegel links the subject＇s problem to choose with logical categories such as measure, contradiction, ground, disjunctive judgment. The ordinary ways dealing with decidophobia （e.g., listing advantages and disadvantages, choosing randomly, avoiding comparison） do not ease the symptoms in an effective way. Hegelian philosophy reveals the impossibility to choose, addressing the arbitrariness and externality in every choosing act what is more, the whole Logic bears a decidophobian atmosphere. However, Logic does contribute some principles to deal with the difficulty to choose, such as evaluating one＇s own choice seriously, resorting to an advanced issue.
