后人类政治哲学的地平线——对当代欧陆激进思想的一个重新审视

Horizons of Posthuman Political Philosophy:Re-Gazing at Contemporary Continental Radical Thought

当代欧陆激进思想的一个共识是,在共同体根基处,不是绝对知识抑或普遍价值,而是深渊性的黑洞。政治哲学——以话语政治为形态的规范性政治哲学——的各种智慧,实际上都是以不同的话语构型去填补深渊,以便遮掩黑洞性的奇点。然而现在问题在于,面对奇点,“政治”如何可能?拉克劳(与穆芙)、齐泽克(与巴迪欧)、阿甘本、奈格里(与哈特)、拉图尔等当代欧陆思想家,都激进地站在了政治哲学的边缘处凝视深渊并接受后者的回视,而其中有部分人物更是彻底越出了话语政治的符号性边界,并因此陷入奇点,开启出以奇点政治为形态的后人类(后人类世)政治哲学。

One of the consensuses of contemporary continental radical thought is that the community’s root lies not in absolute knowledge or universal value but in an abyssal black hole. Political philosophy fills the abyss to cover singularities in the black holes by formulating various discursive formations. The question is: is politics possibly facing singularity? Contemporary continental thinkers such as Laclau( and Mouffe), ?i?ek( and Badiou), Agamben, Negri(and Hardt), and Latour stand radically on the verge of political philosophy, with a few moving even beyond its symbolical border. By doing so, they are rewriting the map of political philosophy.
