后真相生成研究的认识论批评:兼论恢复真相的方法

Epistemological Criticism of Post-truth Generation Research:On the Method of Restoring the Truth

对于后真相的分析批评而言,现有研究已经转向后真相现象生成的认识论。恢复人们对真相的信心,已经成为摆在知识分子面前的一道难题。从批评后真相现象生成的认识论看,当前后真相现象研究中有两个关键“遗忘”和两个关键因素的“忽略”,从而导致对后真相生成的认识论批评的不彻底。关键“遗忘”指向世界观和方法论,即对后现代,特别是对解构主义知识的遗忘,对后真相“泛化式抽象”的表达方式的遗忘。关键因素“忽略”指向对后真相现象生成中的作用因素:对人类传播活动意义的无限推崇,对经济符号资本控制逻辑的滥用。为此,要破除后真相,恢复真相,应当从多维知识体系出发,以社会治理为手段,重塑自媒体舆论秩序。

In terms of the analysis and criticism of post-truth,the existing research has turned to the epistemology of the generation of post-truth phenomenon.Restoring people's confidence in the truth has become a difficult problem for intellectuals.Starting from the epistemology of criticizing the generation of post-truth phenomenon,this paper systematically explores two key forgotten elements and negligence of two factors in the current research on post-truth phenomenon,which leads to the incomplete epistemological criticism of the generation of post-truth.The key forgotten elements refer to the worldview and methodology,that is,the forgetting of postmodern,especially deconstructionist knowledge,and the forgetting of the expression of“generalized abstraction”of post-truth.The negligence of two factors refers to the factors that play a role in the generation of post-truth phenomenon:the infinite admiration of the significance of human communication activities and the abuse of the control logic of economic symbolic capital.To this end,in order to break the post-truth and restore the truth,we should start from the multi-dimensional knowledge system and use social governance as a means to reshape the self-media public opinion order.
