The Construction Of The Online Public Sphere

The article focuses on the strategies used and the dilemmas faced in the use of microblogging,an important online platform,in the process of constructing the online public sphere from Habermas’ theory of the public sphere.China entered the Internet era at the end of the 20 th century,and the emergence of Internet forums,BBS,QQ,and other applications led to initial progress in the construction of the online public sphere.The emergence of microblogs in 2009,with its anonymity,openness,immediacy and interactivity,provided an idealized platform for the construction of China’s online public sphere.In China,where the traditional public sphere is underdeveloped,the reasonable construction of the online public sphere is of great significance for the public to participate in the discussion of public affairs,build a harmonious society,and promote the development of modern civilization.Translated with www.Deep L.com/Translator(free version)After reviewing the development of the public sphere and the evolution of microblogging as a means of constructing the online public sphere,we introduce several existing forms of speech on microblogging and compare them to the current development of the microblogging platform using microblogging entries.The use of microblogging phrases is analyzed in terms of the interactive communication from the subject,the forum for discussion of the event,and the discourse used in online interactions,to understand the significance of the use of microblogging phrases in the construction of the online public sphere: they help They help to integrate public rationality,access pluralistic information and help the public to gain access to more knowledge and information,expand the breadth of communication and public space,and shorten communication time to increase public participation and discourse.Although the microblogging phrase can help to build the online public sphere,there are some dilemmas in practice that may affect the development and progress of the online public sphere,so it is necessary to study the dilemmas formed by the microblogging phrase in building the online public sphere.The article will discuss the three major dilemmas faced by the use of microblog entries for speech from the three elements of Habermas’ theory of the public sphere: the public,public space and public opinion: firstly,the subject construction dilemma,the use process will present a subject communication dilemma and some irrational performance,which is mainly due to the different nature of each type of subject itself and the different goals of use.Secondly,the dilemma of spatial construction,as micro-blog entries are influenced by marketization,entertainment,the invasion of public power and the blurring of the boundaries between the public and private spheres,which makes it easy for micro-blog entries to be used negatively,and the space for the existence of entries that normally summarize public events will be squeezed;thirdly,the dilemma of discourse construction,as discourse is used first and foremost in the use of micro-blog entries.In addition,the imbalance of discourse power on the microblogging platform and the contradiction between the normative and creative aspects of the discourse may cause this problem,which is not conducive to the formation of public opinion.After analyzing the impact of the dilemma faced by microblogging words on the construction of the online public sphere,the corresponding measures are proposed,with the expectation that microblogging words can be used in a rational manner so that they can continue to play a role in the construction of the online public sphere.
