大众传播媒介、公共领域与政治认同

Mass media,public sphere and political identity

本文通过对哈贝马斯、汤普森、巴赫汀的公共领域思想脉络的分析,考察相关的公共领域对公共性以及媒介的不同论述和观点。对一个政治共同体而言,媒介这个可见性的空间,仍是公众之间交往所不可或缺的公共领域,媒介对这个政治共同体而言,也具有构成性的意义。在全球化的趋势中,现代社会面临着文化和群体之间的冲突,公共领域中自由与平等的沟通,仍是解决冲突和寻求可以共存的协议的首要方式。这种沟通不在于是否是理性的论辩或是可否达成普遍性的共识,而是透过众多不同的公共领域不间断的叙述,和对自我存在的再描述,而能逐渐扩大公民之间的政治认同。

By analyzing the sequence of the public sphere thoughts of Habermas,Thompson and Bakhtin, this paper inspect the different elaboration and thinking about the public and the media from different public sphere.The author indicates that the media,as a visible space,is still an indispensable public sphere of the public communication for a political community and it is also has the constructive significance.The modern society faces the conflicts between cultures and social stratums in the tendency of globalization,and communicating freely and equally in the public sphere is still the most important way to solve the conflicts and search agreements to coexistence.Rational debate and universal mutual recognition are not the subject that this kind of communication tries to achieve.The aim of this communication is to expand identities among the public gradually through viewing uninterrupted narrates and re-depicting of self-existence from all kinds of public sphere.
