霍耐特早期哲学人类学兴趣后来湮灭了吗?

Does the interest in philosophical anthropology in early Axel Honneth vanish later?

早在1980年霍耐特与姚阿斯合作出版《社会行动与人的天性》,标志着霍氏对哲学人类学兴趣的开端。这种关注有其理论缘由,旨趣在于通过人类学的分析来理解社会斗争的心理动力机制,这种斗争过程推动着哈贝马斯所谓的交往理性状态和社会持续道德进步状态的实现。在霍耐特“承认理论”形成之后,霍耐特通过对社会斗争的社会心理学依据的再反思,通过社会病理学、自由的病态等概念的形成和提出延续着他的人类学兴趣,这种兴趣的延续构成了他“批判的社会学”的底色。霍耐特哲学人类学兴趣的积极意义在于坚持了批判理论面向社会经验和个体体验的传统,不足在于严重受制于黑格尔-哈贝马斯主体间性的理解范式,把人类承认心理中“拒绝承认”的方面搁置起来,这在冲突激化、焦虑上升、民粹膨胀时期,其说服力被打折扣。

As early as in 1980 Axel Honneth with Hans Joas published his works named Social Action and Human Nature,which stands for his beginning of interest in philosophical anthology.This anthropological interest has its reason that Axel Honneth tries from the aspect of anthropology to understand moral mechanics of social struggle,which pursues the progress of social communicative morality and reason in the sense of Habermas.After formation of his recognitional critical theory,Honneth extends his interest in the way of reconsideration of the anthropological basis of social conflict,putting forward concepts like social pathology,and the illness of freedom,and there is no doubt that such interest lays a foundation for his critical sociology.The significance of such interest is that it proceeds with the original intent of social theory to face social and individual experience,and the shortcoming is that it is too much located in the frame of Hegal and Habermas'theory,refusing the side of misrecognition,and all these lead to the descent of the explanation power of his theory in the time of uplifting of populism,overflowing of anxieties and conflicts of identity and sovereignty.
