华中科技大学硕士学位论文论网络时政论坛对中国公共领域构建的影响姓名:刘灿申请学位级别:硕士专业:传播学指导教师:陈先红20080601华中科技大学硕士学位论文摘要对于现代传播持激烈批判态度的德国学者哈贝马斯断言,公共领域在19世纪与20世纪因传媒的发展而衰落了,而近年来网络传播的蓬勃发展却不断引起我们对以往传播研究的重新思考和再认识。
的确,网络世界里汇集的人类社会发展的新形态在不断给传播理论提出新的课题和挑战。
越来越多的传播学者倾向于审视公共领域理论在当代社会情景下的现实意义,用发展的观点重新认识哈贝马斯的“公共领域”概念。
以此为出发点,本文对中国目前的网络时政论坛进行深入研究。
通过对网络时政论坛进行分类,并厘清其性质与特点的基础上,提出网络时政论坛已经具备了构建“公共领域”条件的观点。
网络时政论坛的发展强烈地影响着公共领域的概念,并推动现代意义的公共领域不断走向完善。
虽然这个过程在中国或许还相当漫长,但网络时政论坛提供了一个可供尽可能多的人参与,并实现理性表达和交流,以此系统地、批判地检验政府政策的良好平台。
这无疑是现代意义的“公共领域”的雏形。
本文还以两个中国目前最大的网络时政论坛——强国论坛和天涯社区为例进行了实证考察,从公共场所、公众和公众舆论的形成三个方面,对两大论坛在5.12汶川大地震后开设的“抗震救灾论坛”和“汶川地震”专版进行了量化分析。
此外,还采用定性的方法深入剖析了强国论坛作为初见端倪的中国公共领域的代表,对中国民主政治进程的影响。
随着网络技术的发展,越来越多的公众将获得网络的接近使用权,为公共领域中的沟通与对话创造现实基础,这对促进哈贝马斯所提倡的“民主的民主化”,推进当代中国的民主政治进程,将产生广泛而深远的影响。

Indeed, the new shape of social development which gathered in the network world had constantly challenged the communication theory. More and more spread scholars incline to scrutinize the realistic meaning of the public field theory under the contemporary social scene, re-recognize Habermas's “public sphere” concept with the view of development.Regarded of that above, this reseach carries on further investigation on Chinese present topicality BBS. Through classifying the forum of it, and its property and characteristic, put forward the topicality BBS have already possessed the view which has constructed “public field” terms. The development of the topicality BBS is influencing the concept of the public sphere strongly, promote the public sphere of the modern meaning to move towards constantly being complete. Though the course perhaps also quite long in China, the topicality BBS offered a good platform which can support as many as possible people participate in, communication rationally, examine government policy critically. This is undoubtedly an embryonic form of “public field” of a modern meaning.This text still carried on a real example to investigate the Qiangguo BBS, the biggest the topicality BBS in current China. After the property, characteristic formed in its inside are analysised, investigated the impact on Chinese democratic politics process from Qiangguo BBS, as the representative of public sphere in China. With the development of network technology, more and more masses are going to obtain the access to media, to create the realistic foundation to communication in public sphere. That will influence greatly in promoting the “democratization of democracy” which recommended by Habermas and also means a lot in advancing the contemporary Chinese democratic politics process.Keywords:Topicality BBS Public sphere Construction DemocracyV华 中 科 技 大 学 硕 士 学 位 论 文 III 独创性声明 本人声明所呈交的学位论文是我个人在导师指导下进行的研究工作及取得的研究成果。
