马克思主义政治经济学符号批评的范式转换

The Paradigm Transformation of Semiotic Criticism in Marxist Political Economy

马克思主义的政治经济学符号批评有其漫长的发展历程。马克思本人业已在其政治经济学中,表达出关于符号现象的认识与探索,在此基础上,此后的诸多马克思主义者在进行政治经济学批评的过程中,先后援引了不同的现代符号学方法。以列斐伏尔等为代表的某些马克思主义者,将索绪尔二元论符号学运用于政治经济学批评中,却使批评工作受到了二元论符号学形而上学缺陷的影响;然而,洛塞—郎蒂等巴里学派成员则以皮尔斯逻辑符号学传统的三元论符号学方法,对政治经济学的符号学批评范式进行革新,由此使马克思主义政治经济符号批评体现出对意义延伸性的强调,从而更具历史唯物主义的价值向度。

The semiotic criticism of Marxist political economy has gone through a long process of development.Marx himself denoted his understanding and exploration of signs and phenomena in his political economy.Since then,many Marxists built on that and invoked different modern Semiotic methods in delivering their critique on political economy one after another.Some Marxists,as represented by Lefebvre,applied the Saussurean dualist semiotics to their criticism of political economy and,yet,could not avoid the effect from its metaphysical defects.However,Rossi-Landi and other members of the School of Bari reformed the paradigm of Semiotic criticism on the political economy by using the triadic model of semiosis based on the tradition of the Piercean logic as semiotics and highlighted the emphasis that the semiotic criticism of Marxist political economy placed on the extension of meaning,so as to gain more valuable significance of historical materialism.
