交往理性思想:批判与乌托邦

哈贝马斯在反思韦伯和法兰克福学派对工具理性批判的困境的基础上,提出了以主体间性为中心的交往理性思想,试图以交往理性的发展来克服生活世界的殖民化。哈贝马斯对微观生活世界、政治异化的分析是对马克思的有益补充,但他误解了马克思的实践思想,错误地批判了马克思的劳动概念。因为没有准确理解马克思的实践思想,局限于语言哲学的范畴,哈贝马斯自己也没有摆脱意识哲学的困境,其交往理性思想最终不过是一种乌托邦。

Communicative Rationality:Critique and Utopia

The idea of communicative rationality centered on intersubjectivity is proposed by Habermas as a result of his reflection on the dilemma Max Weber and the Frankfurt School faced in the critique of instrumental rationality. It is an attempt to overcome colonization in the life-world by developing communicative rationality. The author points out that while Habermas' analyses of the lifeworld and political alienation have contributed to Marxism, he misunderstands the conceptions of praxis and labor by Marx, and his criticism of the concept of labor is not justified. As a result, Habermas himself is trapped in the philosophy of consciousness and confined to language philosophy. His communicative rationality is after all a Utopia.
