传统、现代和后现代:社会信任的三个维度——关于社会信任的本土化探索

中国社会在相对较短的历史时空内,相继经历了农业文明、工业文明和后现代文明的共存、碰撞与交融,社会信任在这三个历史时期表现出不同的特点。在本土视野下,传统、现代和后现代作为社会信任发展的三个维度,赋予了社会信任不同的内涵。传统的软环境下产生的熟悉信任,现代的硬环境建构的陌生信任以及后现代碎片式信任关系。面对今天的社会信任危机,应该采取更加清醒、沉着和理性的应对方式。

Tradition,Modernness and Post-modernness as Three Dimensions of Social Trust: A Study of the Localization of Social Trust

In a relatively short historical time and space,Chinese society has experienced the coexistence,conflicts and fusion of agricultural civilization,industrial civilization and post-modern civilization,in which social trust has shown different characteristics.In the local perspective,tradition,modernness and post-modernness as three dimensions of the development of social trust have different implications,which find expression in the familiar trust in the traditional soft environment,the unfamiliar trust in the modern hard environment and the post-modern fragmented trust relationships.We should have a more sober,cool-minded and rational attitude towards the trust crisis of contemporary society with proper countermeasures.
