摘 要: 对于哈贝马斯的学术定位,历来有所争议。由于他对西方传统自由主义思想的偏离,使得他时而被归入社群主义者或共和主义者的行列,他后期的一些著作又被认为是对自由主义与共和主义的综合或者超越。我们首先从哈贝马斯早期著作入手,通过他对两种公共领域意识形态发展线索的区分,以及社群主义者与当代自由主义者的争论,揭示哈贝马斯学术思想的自由主义出发点;其次论述三位自由主义者理论的缺陷以及哈贝马斯的相应对策,探讨他对自由主义自身理论修正的思想脉络;最后在哈贝马斯前后思想发展的基础上,探寻他对自己早期自由主义思想的补充和超越。

Habermas’ Revision and Transcendence toward Liberalism
HOU Dun
Abstract: There has always been an argument about Habermas’ academic orientation. Because he departed from the western traditional liberalism, sometimes he had been categorized into the communitarianist and republicanist, while some of his works in the later period had been regarded as the integration or transcendence of liberalism and republicanism. In the first part of this paper, Habermas’ earlier works have been studied, from which the start point of his academic liberalism has been revealed by his differentiating two public spheres’ ideology development and arguing between communitarianists and contemporary liberalists. In the second part, it discusses some limitations of three liberalists’ theories as well as Habermas’ counterplots, and it explores his ideas about revision of liberalism theory. Finally, based on the development of Habermas’ thoughts, I try to explore his supplement and transcendence toward his own liberalism ideas in the earlier times.
