现代性重拾、环境转向与治理:一个价值共存的视角

Modernity Rediscovering,Environmental Transformation and Governance:A Value Compatibility Perspective

现今的社会生活仍旧无法避免现代性特征与价值的强烈影响,现代性、环境与治理之间有着错综复杂的关系。现代性因环境污染与风险受到批判,但在现代性与环境转向之间建立正向共存的价值联系并非不可能。虽然一些现代价值与环境价值之间存在冲突,但进步性、科学性和平等性等现代价值与环境价值之间具有相容性,并孕育和促成了现代社会的环境转向。环境转向之后,环境保护引出了以二分法形式出现的价值冲突,环境保护及其政策与现代问题更深入、更全面地相互交织在一起,对环境正义的寻求为此提供了话语空间和价值回应。为了应对随之而来的更加复杂多面的现代环境问题,环境治理需要综合性地寻求和呈现环境治理及其政策的合理性,但更为重要的是建立与维系信任,而这也与现代性特征和价值紧密相联。

Today’s social life can’t avoid the strong influence of characteristics and values of modernity,and there is a complicated relationship among modernity,environment and governance.Modernity is criticized for environmental pollution and risks,but it is not impossible to establish a positive,compatible value relationship between modernity and environmental transformation.Although there are conflicts between certain modern values and environmental values,the concept of progress,science and equality,which is compatible with environmental values,has nurtured and contributed to the environmental transformation of modern society.After the transformation,environmental protection leads to the conflict of values in the form of dichotomy.Environmental protection and its policies are more deeply and comprehensively intertwined with modern problems,then the search for environmental justice provides a discourse space and value response.In order to deal with the complex and multifaceted modern environmental problems afterwards,environmental governance is supposed to seek and present its rationality in a comprehensive manner;furthermore,it is more important to establish and maintain trust,which is closely related to the characteristics and values of modernity.
