话语诠释学:跨多学科的探索

话语在其最广泛的意义上包括了交流的不同层面，从人际到国际，甚至不同文明间的对话。当代世界的不同文明之间迫切需要建设性的对话和话语。为探寻那些可以引向积极和建设性话语的哲学与文化假设，探索促进富有建设性和积极性的话语原则，将当代哲学、与话语相关的思想及其实践应用结合起来分析，并对某些不同学科领域里的理论假设及其实际影响做了一个简要回顾。分析认为，后结构主义的传播方式倾向于将语言看成是非此即彼，由支配关系构成的话语，或是有着几乎无限的模糊性，可提供机会通过颠覆意义来抵抗被支配；诸如伽达默尔和哈贝马斯所提出的诠释学方法提供了达成相互理解、建立共识以及团结的途径。

Hermeneutics of discourse:a multidisciplinary exploration of Elements for constructive communication

Discourse in its broadest meaning encompasses various levels of communication, from interpersonal to international and even dialogue between civilizations. This paper is a search for philosophical and cultural assumptions that can lead to positive and constructive discourse. Poststructuralist approaches to communication have tended to see language either in terms of discourse, constituted by relations of domination, or in terms of a virtually unlimited ambiguity that offers opportunities to resist domination mainly through subversion of meaning. Hermeneutic approaches such as those offered by Gadamer and Habermas, on the other hand, offer paths to mutual understanding, consensus-building, and solidarity. A review of certain theoretical assumptions across various academic disciplines and their practical implications is expected to facilitate the development of a framework for engagement in discourses that are at once critical and constructive.
