“我们都是打工人”:新时代青年工人的身份认同与话语建构

“We Are All Da Gong Ren”:Identity and Discourse Construction of Young Workers in the New Era

"打工人"作为网络流行词汇,其背后的结构性意义和文化内涵值得深思。作为一种语言文本,它反映出青年工人在劳动力市场中的工作境遇:雇佣工作制度下的约束感和科学管理体制中的劳动自主性缺失。"打工人"的传播过程将抵抗意识与归属意愿统一成一种"协商式认同",在积极规划未来的意蕴中完成了自我认同的重建。从更深层次的意义上来讲,"打工人"符号的领会和应用过程不仅促进了青年工人身份的再生产,还在理论上呈现出身份建构的主体性色彩以及话语建构在工人阶级实体动态生成中的作用。"打工人"是"工人阶级"概念与新的社会情境互动的产物,通过建构和明晰青年工人的身份而补充和扩展了旧的话语体系,赋予劳动、工作和工人以新的内涵。

As an internet catchword,the structural and cultural meaning of"Da Gong Ren"is worth pondering.As a language text,it has reflected the working situation of young workers in the labor market:the sense of restraint under the employment work system and the lacking of labor autonomy in the management system.The communication process of"Da Gong Ren"has unified the"resistance"and the"belonging"into a"consultative identity",and completed the reconstruction of self-identity in some positive attitude.In a deeper sense,the understanding and the application of the"Da Gong Ren"not only promotes the reproduction of the identity of young workers,but also theoretically presents the subjectivity and the role of discourse construction in the dynamic generation of working-class entities."Da Gong Ren"is a product of the interaction between the concept of"working class"and current social situation.By constructing and clarifying the identity of young workers,we have complemented and expanded the old discourse system and given new connotation to labor,work and workers.
