区隔、越界与冲突:《寄生虫》的阶层寓言

Distinction,Transgression and Conflict:A Class Fable in Parasite

文章基于对韩国电影《寄生虫》的分析,指出该电影中的阶层意象:在正常的社会运行中,阶层之间的区隔构成了阶级冲突的缓冲器,各个阶层是井然有序、相安无事的;一旦出现阶层的越界行为,就可能导致社会失序,进而引发冲突。从这个意义上讲,现代社会的“阶层空间化”与住房阶级现象,实际上是社会演化的结果,具有维护既定社会等级秩序的功能。

Based on the analysis of the Korean movie Parasite,the article reveals the hierarchical images in the movie:when society runs normally,different classes keep in order and live in harmony due to the segregation of classes which works as a buffer.However,once the class transgression occurs,it may lead to disorder,which eventually will induce conflict.In this sense,it is social evolution that leads to“class spatialization”and housing classes in modern society,which has the function of maintaining established social hierarchy.
