当代中国语境的现代性反思与建构

当充满争议的现代性概念与复杂的中国问题相遭遇,当代中国语境的现代性认识产生分歧也就在所难免。厘清这些分歧不仅是廓清历史主义和后现代主义思潮纷争的前提,更关系着中国未来现代化的健康发展和走向。要对当代中国语境的现代性及其现代性问题作出合理诊断,需要以普世文明的胸怀,重新审视中国现代性问题;建立开放、辩证和多维的现代性认知态度;创新传统,为中国现代性之路提供文化支撑。     

新公共管理运动的哲学底蕴论析——以后现代主义哲学为分析视角

新公共管理运动是西方发达国家政府改革过程中,解构与重塑传统行政范式的主导性变革运动。该运动对现代性理念的解构体现于对层级节制的颠覆,倡导用顾客导向和网络结构代替工具理性和金字塔型的行政体系等方面,但这种解构与重塑是不彻底和难以完成的。新公共管理运动的困境本质上是作为其基础的后现代主义哲学的困境。     

别一种城市化——走出城乡二元对立深谷的新思路

大城市病问题和城乡二元对立问题是两个横亘在中国前进之路上的巨大障碍,桎梏着中国的和谐发展.传统的头疼医头、脚疼医脚式的机械碎化思维在解决这些重大问题上暴露了它的无能.从一种建设性后现代有机整体思维出发,提出了破局之道,认为城市问题与城乡对立问题是相互关联的一体两面问题,因此不能简单地只在城市范围解决城市问题.同样,农村的问题也不能只在农村范围解决.要运用同体思维,树立城乡一盘棋思想,将城市化问题和城乡对立问题当作一篇大文章来做,发展一种具有中国特色的城乡并茂的有根城市化.这种有根的城市化追求人与自然的和谐相处,视城市和乡村为一个多元共生的有机整体,强调工业与农业的相互滋养,推重城乡之间的互补并茂.对于我们走出城乡二元对立的深谷,实现城乡一体化,“让发展成果更多更公平惠及全体人民”,这种有根的城市化不失为一种健康的选择.     

莎士比亚作品的后现代电影改编——以《哈姆雷特2000版》为例

莎士比亚作品的电影改编由来已久,自20世纪90年代以来,许多电影工作者在将莎士比亚的作品搬上银幕时已对其作品进行了大胆的僭越与颠覆,《哈姆雷特2000版》便是其中的代表影片。这部电影带着深深的后现代主义烙印进入到观众视野。以弗雷德里克.詹姆逊的后现代理论为依据阐述这部电影当中的后现代主义特征,可以探寻这一时期莎士比亚作品电影改编的新特征。     

论现代美学的重建——超越现代主义与后现代主义

现代主义美学遭到后现代主义美学的反拨。这种反拨是一种矫枉过正,它具有破坏性而缺乏建设性。因此,现代美学并没有终结。应该超越现代主义和后现代主义,重建现代美学。具体说,就是应该超越实存哲学和后形而上学,建立存在论美学;超越先验现象学和经验现象学;建立审美现象学;超越本质主义和解构主义,确立审美的超越性;超越主体性哲学和他者性哲学,确立审美的主体间性;超越意识美学和身体美学,建立体验美学。     

Dis/entangling critical disability studies

Recently there has been discussion about the emergence of critical disability studies. In this paper I provide an inevitably partial and selective account of this trans-disciplinary space through reference to a number of emerging insights, including theorizing through materialism, bodies that matter, inter/trans-sectionality, global disability studies, and self and Other. I briefly disentangle these themes and suggest that while we may well start with disability, we often never end with it as we engage with other transformative arenas including feminist, critical race and queer theories. Yet critical disability studies reminds us of the centrality of disability when we consider the politics of life itself. In this sense, then, disability becomes entangled with other forms of oppression and revolutionary responses.     

Cultural Competency as New Racism: An Ontology of Forgetting

This article argues that cultural competency promotes an obsolete view of culture and is a form of new racism. Cultural competency resembles new racism both by otherizing non-whites and by deploying modernist and absolutist views of culture while not using racialist language. Drawing on child welfare, cultural competence is shown to repeat what Lowe (1993) calls an ontology of forgetting Canada's history of colonialism and racism. A recommendation is made for jettisoning cultural competency and emphasizing instead a self-reflexive grappling with racism and colonialism.     

Mystification as an Artistic Strategy in Milan Kundera's Work

ABSTRACT

Using close reading of Kundera's texts, Jan ?ulík argues that many arguments in Milan Kundera's literary works are deliberate provocations. Kundera's approach is undoubtedly related to post-modernism, although he used his mystification techniques long before the arrival of postmodernism, as early as in the Stalinist 1950s when he published fake quotes from Lenin in official Stalinist publications. In Jan ?ulík's view, it is the purpose of Milan Kundera's systematic use of false facts, distortions and disrupted logic to warn his readers against against the unreliability of words and human communication. Kundera seems to argue that the world in its complexity is basically unknowable and the only thing that is left for us is, in despair, in our ignorace of what is going on around us, to carry out pranks.     

和谐与活力:建设性后现代主义的农业观及其启示

现代农业取得了重大成就,极大地改变了人类生存境遇,但人类却为此付出了惨痛的生态、环境及资源代价,现代农业遭遇困境,危机四伏。笔者认为,怀特海式的建设性后现代主义其内在深层的"和谐"、"生态"和"创造力"的思想与中国文明和哲学传统有天然的接近,怀特海与马克思都有着对人类命运及福祉的共同关切,因而建设性后现代主义的农业观或许能为中国农业的发展提供新的思路与视角,从而使中国找到具有中国特色的动力机制与平衡机制协调发展,即充满活力、和谐持续的"后现代农业"发展之路。     

后现代主义视角下的高校德育改革

在中西文化的碰撞中,作为后现代主义的社会文化思潮,不可避免地会对当代大学生的思想行为产生影响。作为高校德育,必须在合理地吸收和借鉴后现代主义思想合理元素的基础上,有机地促使德育内容由单纯地注重道德知识传授向关注情境与情感效应转变,使德育目标由＂完人教育＂转向关注个性发展,变德育途径由单方说教为互动式道德对话。
