An Outline Of The Communication Studies Through The Subjectivism Philosophy Horizon

This paper focuses on the Communication and the issues of Communication Studies through the Subjectivism philosophy horizon. We incline to re-sort out the ideological path which have exerted far-reaching influence on Communication, from the horizon of the Subjectivism philosophy, since then the development of Western academic, and rethink the new problems facing modern or so-called post-modern context communication under its discipline and the guide lines of such path, rather than technically mean "How does it spread?""How to communicate effectively?""what does the communication take to us?" and categorized them as contemplation core.In this thesis, the outline point is on Western Mass Communication Evolution. As Outline, its main purpose is not to solve the problems directly. A Philosophical Perspective, traced to source, examine communication studies since the development of the history of ideas, this paper is committed to draw a map which can affect the ideological of the Western Communication Studies Evolution. We believe that communication studies would re-clarify and re-define their disciplinary status, to examine the current Communication Tool research orientation and research paradigm through a new sight, especially the Subjectivism philosophy which affects several hundred years of Western philosophy sight. Meanwhile, we also attempted to collusion between the communication issues of current social development context, and try to give some explanation (rather than solutions).The Subjectivism philosophy is an essential ideological branch in the history of Western philosophy. The reason for departure from this sight to reflect on the Evolution of Communication Studies, is based on its far-reaching influence. It should be said that the Subjectivism philosophical traditions shape the way Westerners understanding the world and discovering the world, self-congnition/self-awareness and finding others. The philosophy is like the birthplace of all other humanities and social science[collision on the philosophy and science, of course, it also brings many problems in the humanities and social sciences disciplines or "dispute"--in the third chapter we will discuss this issue.]. In the entire step-by-step development of the history of Western philosophy, the Subjectivism philosophy as a philosophy of epistemology changed the core issues of the entire Western philosophical concerns, also had a Western philosophy frame which is different from the Eastern philosophy. Although Communication in the contemporary sense of the early20th century, as an emerging discipline a relationship with them and the impact on psychology, sociology, social psychology, political science, journalism, but, much more fundamentally, all of them have some inherent common tradition of research in these disciplines, and by the subtle influence of the Subjectivism philosophy.Some people might ask, what connect the communication with the Subjectivism philosophy department, since the Subjectivism philosophy is such a wide range? To look at the specific discipline issues will generalities by a common philosophy sight? We believe that the Subjectivism philosophy not only affect the entire modern Western Communication Construction at the theoretical level, but also of the various communication behavior, especially in the current era of new media, to reflect the impact can be from another a given path interpretation of some communication issues in the real level.Durkheim argues that social facts is not only merely the psychological development of the facts, in fact, most of the psychological fact is the extension of social facts of the individual consciousness. Metaphysical philosophy as a social conscious individual directly affected unit by this philosophical enlightenment. Communication is a specific disciplines involved in the study of social facts and psychological facts, including research concerning a society, the media and individual mind, is a mutual construction of symbiotic relationship. Re-clarify the context of the Subjectivism philosophy, but also entirely observe specific thinkers exchange ther ideas each other [I am in the process of communication with Nanjing University, Hu Yiqing, professor Hu put forward a possible "dangerous", is about to spread the study of approximately "communication philosophy." Will this go astray towards an "exchange of Philosophy, Peters is also indirectly in his book" Chapter1"to clarify the controversy of the 1920s" a spoke in detail about the problem, but he tendency metaphysical rather than empirical scientism "communication" did not present themselves as doing more research, we will talk about our awareness of the issue further in other sections of the paper.]. There is an premise of argument that the scholars (philosophers, writers, artists) in the social division of labor,during a specific era, does not mean that all. But their thoughts and aims represents the problem people generally concerned to some extent.In this way, we chose the book Speaking into the air:A History of the Idea of Communication (John Durham Peters). The core questions in the book as a starting point, retrospective Communication" Past and Present "and explore the Western Communication a consistent metaphysical principles. It should be said that Peters book is an important book to the Study of western communication history:in2000American academics, empiricism Communication as the direction of mainstream, gave its the highest award-United States Communication Association Award-to the Speaking into the air; while in the UK where is humanistic traditions, one of the founders of the "media, culture and society ", Scannell (Paddy Scannell), a well-known media scholar of University of Westminster, put:"Generally speaking,what I read about from’Speaking into the air’is the most initiate and stimulating masterpiece. It is splendid, erudite and profound, although confusing once in a while."Speaking into the Air, in the West of broadcasting history, award-winning, in addition to another way of his book and the sea of unrestrained, I would like to think it attribute to its representative in the Western Communication-can be said that it is on target of the West empiricism Communication scholars. But we have to analyze such "resonance", which also can be said to reveal the "Achilles heel" of the Peters’ by an insisting on getting to the bottom of the matter way. Although such an attempt would seem to be overconfident, we still hope that the "capabilities" in this issue.Of course, this paper can be considered critical reflection about Peters Speaking into the Air as well. But this criticism is not committed to give an answer to the ultimate question (It is unwise and possible for any person to do so. It seems to be that communication is an individual spontaneous behavior, but in terms of its social nature, it is a normative behavior). At the same time, I would not like to do an anatomy just like a type of "Book Review". So, in this paper, we will not be bothered too much by the Greek tradition concerned in the process of argumentation of the original Peters or "spiritualism" and "there are numerous non-communicative "and so on. This paper concentrates on the Subjectivism philosophy of sight, re-examine the "conclusion" of Peters. And, reversely, look into the traditions, tendency and issues which have an effect on Western Communication Research in the process.Dida Marcus Stella said:"Dwarf standing on the shoulders of giants can see farther than the giant himself." I would like to gesture as a dwarf, standing on the shoulders of giants, try to glance the way giants walked.
