從對話到敵對的民主化實踐:Mikhail Bakhtin 對話主義的理論轉折與政治方案之 初探
From Dialogue to Antagonism: A Preliminary Study on the Theoretical Transition of Mikhail Bakhtin’s Dialogism and its Political Calculation for the Practice of Democratization
This paper aims to propose the political calculation for the practice of democratization by outline the theoretical transition of Mikhail Bakhtin’s dialogism. First, it read Bakhtinian critique of Russian formalism and revisited the core issues of dialogism by referring to the concept of carnival. Second, it incorporated Laclau & Mouffe (1985)’s “antagonism and “articulatory practice” to elaborate the theoretical transition of dialogism by contrasting “ordinary dialogue” with “political dialogue”. Based on the research findings, the paper concluded that the political calculation of democratization which dialogism embodies is to transform the pre-given social norms to the not-yet-to-be-given, thereby constructing an alternative ideology under contingent historical context.
