摘要
当代民主理论将公民参与的形式和公共舆论的质量作为衡量民主健康与否的重要指标。网络技术的产生一度让人们相信,在后现代和犬儒主义时代迅速消退的公民交谈文化,可以在虚拟空间中重新复兴。但对于实际存在的网络话语的经验研究再一次表明,技术乐观主义者需要调低期待度。互联网是当代公共领域的核心组成部分,它太重要,社会绝不应该放心地把它彻底交给资本和市场。社会需要持续不断地探索在这些公共平台中交往理性实现的路径与方式。
In the contemporary democratic theory,the methods for citizen participation and the quality of public opinions are used as an important criterion for measuring the health of democracy.This article aims to explore whether the discourse practice created by Internet media helps with the social and political democratization process.For some time,the introduction of network technology causes people to believe that citizens' communication culture that has quickly vanished in the postmodern and cynical era can be revived in the cyberspace.But actual empirical research on the Internet discourse shows again that the technological optimists need to lower their expectations.The Internet is the essential component of modern public domain.It is so important that our society should never rashly make it completely subject to the capital and market.Rather,we need to continuously explore the path and method for achieving communication rationality in these public platforms.
