康德“自主启蒙”与现代社会互动机制

Kant's"Autonomous Enlightenment"and the Interactive Mechanism of Modern Society

现代启蒙已非等级共同体的精英单向灌输,而是社会主体的自主启蒙。这一转型奠基于康德,其“自主启蒙”提供了施动型转变为自主型的现代社会互动机制原理与完整实践路径。个体对现状的理性反思与承担社会责任的自由人格发育同步,自主启蒙完成于理性交往的社会互动。交往在信息化时代已成为生产方式变革枢纽,启蒙从而成为生产方式与生活方式现代演进的内在机制。

Modern enlightenment is no longer one-wayindoctrination by elites in a hierarchical community,but the autonomous enlightenment of social agents.This transformation originated with Kant,whose autonomous enlightenment provides the principles behind and complete pathway of practice toward the transformation of modern social interaction from an active to an autonomous type.The individual's rational reflection on the current situation is synchronous with the development of the free personality's assumption of social responsibility,and autonomous enlightenment is completed by social interaction through rational communication.Communication has become a hub for the transformation of production methods in the information age,thus turning enlightenment into an inherent mechanism for the modern evolution of production methods and ways of life.
