The Research On Hartmut Rosa’s Resonance Theory

Hartmut Rosa is a world-famous social critical theorist.He is concerned about the rationality of people’s "unhappy life" in the capitalist society,and discusses the accelerated development trend of contemporary capitalism from the perspective of acceleration.On this basis,he creatively establishes the relative systematic resonance theory.Starting from the reconstruction of the relationship between man and the world,this theory puts forward the idea of striving to realize people’s better life.This theory expands the research perspective of Marx’s theory of alienation,develops the critical theory of Frankfurt School,and further improves the acceleration theory.The study of Rosa’s resonance theory is of great theoretical significance for understanding capitalism and exploring the principle of good life.First of all,this paper combs the origin and theoretical origin of Hartmut Rosa’s resonance theory.Based on the analysis of the current capitalist social background,Rosa emphasizes that acceleration has become a part of the social structure,and he takes acceleration theory as the starting point,and proposes that the current society is experiencing the crisis of "dynamic stability" and "de-synchronization".But the inherent flaws of acceleration theory are calling for resonance theory.In the course of Hartmut Rossa’s research,Marx’s communist thought and alienation thought,Charles Taylor’s concept of "authenticity" and the recognition theory of the third generation representative of the Frankfurt School Honet provided rich theoretical resources for the formation of his resonance theory.Secondly,the paper expounds the basic content of Hartmut Rosa’s resonance theory.Rosa believes that modern society is in a dynamic and stable mode of interlocking growth,acceleration and innovation,which not only brings us accelerated technology,accelerated social change and accelerated pace of life,but also damages the "friendly relationship" between the subject and the world.He proposed that a stable axis of resonance with the world must be established in the social,existential and physical aspects in order to restore this relation ship.However,in modern society,the conflict between "trying to control the world" and "seeking resonance" destroys the so-called axis of resonance,which gradually separates the world from the main body.Therefore,he is committed to building a new social development paradigm in modern society--the post-growth society.Finally,the thesis uses Marxist standpoint,viewpoint and method to evaluate Hartmut Rosa’s resonance theory.In terms of theoretical significance,the comprehensive and profound theoretical system of Rosa has given Marx’s theory of alienation rich content of The Times,promoted the development of Frankfurt School’s critical theory to a certain extent,and also promoted the perfection of the development of social acceleration theory.But it should be pointed out that compared with Marx’s theory,his theory system still has some problems.Although he pointed out the problem of accelerating social alienation and provided a way of sublating alienation,the way of sublating alienation was generally compromise and one-sided,and would eventually lead to "wilderness".
