摘要

哈贝马斯的商谈伦理是因应晚期资本主义社会的合法化危机而提出的。一方面,哈贝马斯一直强调自己的理论有着极强的实践关怀,是一种“后形而上学”的理论范式;但是另一方面,他仍然受到许多经验主义者及实证研究者的批评与挑战。为了让规范性的哲学理论同政治社会实践相结合,构建让两者相互对话的中程理论就显得十分必要。晚近以来对此问题进行的各种社会科学实证研究都可以视为化解理论与实践的张力、构建二者之间的中程理论的探索。在关于商谈伦理的哲学研究和社会科学实证研究之间,以及定性研究和定量研究之间,仍然存在着明显的张力,这些张力需要通过拓展不同学科的方法论视野来克服。

Abstract

Habermas’s discourse ethics is prescribed for the legitimacy crisis in the late capitalist society. Although Habermas emphasizes that his theory has strong practical concerns and it is a kind of theoretical paradigm of “post-metaphysics”, it has been criticized and challenged by many empiricists and empirical researchers. In order to combine the normative theory with political and social practices, the building of middle-range theories to make a dialogue between them is very necessary. Recent empirical studies on this issue can be regarded as an attempt to build middle-range theories so as to dissolve the tensions between theory and practice. Obvious tensions between philosophical studies on discourse ethics and empirical researches on it in social sciences, as well as those between qualitative and quantitative researches, need to be overcome by extending the methodological horizons of different disciplines.
