THE RHETORICAL FOUNDATIONS OF SOCIETY
Book ID/图书代码： 13850014B69009
English Summary/英文概要： The essays collected in this volume develop the theoretical perspective initiated in Laclau and Mouffe’s classic Hegemony and Socialist Strategy, taking it in three principal directions. First, this book explores the specificity of social antagonisms and answers the question "What is an antagonistic relation?"—an issue which has become increasingly crucial in our globalized world, where the proliferation of conflicts and points of rupture is eroding their links to the social subjects postulated by classical social analysis. This leads Laclau to a second line of questioning: "What is the ontological terrain that allows us to understand the nature of social relations in our heterogeneous world?" This is a task he addresses with theoretical instruments drawn from analytical philosophy and from the phenomenological and structuralist traditions. Finally, central to the argument of the book is the basic role attributed to rhetorical tropes—metaphor, metonymy, catachresis—in shaping the "non-foundational" grounds of society.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 《社会的修辞基础》从拉克劳和墨菲的经典霸权主义和社会主义战略出发，从三个主要角度进一步发展了理论视角。首先，这本书探索了社会对立的特殊性，并为对立关系下了定义，这个问题在当今日渐全球化的世界中显得尤其重要，冲突和分离的升级正在腐蚀它们与经典社会分析假定的社会主体。紧接着，克劳德又提出了第二个问题：在这个多元化的世界中，哪些本体论元素使我们了解了社会关系的本质？拉克劳从分析哲学以及现象学和结构主义传统中提取的理论工具解答了这个问题。最后一个角度回归到了本书的主题，那就是修辞学的基础作用，包括隐喻，转喻，夸张等手法，组成了社会的基础。（XAT）
