Aesthetics expanding to politics, it is the dual effort of the aesthetics to life and political art. The study of contemporary political aesthetics of literary text does not give a real response to it.There are many reasons in two points.First of all, the aesthetics of literary text or transcendental aesthetics thinking is instead of political reality. What is more, in the community to the restruction of our society, the relationship between the aesthetics of the subject and the modern political entities failed to resolve. The mainstream of modern political philosophy is the liberal "procedure of constitution", their limits are expected to adopt the "aesthetic common sense-aesthetic idea of community" to achieve improvement. Therefore, political aesthetics of literature and art cannot be a substitute for ideal political reality. Aesthetics, bearing for religious/ethical community heritage, is explored as public spirit in the reconstruction of modern society. Since the disenchantment of the world, the subject confirms itself by the moment of each giving chase to new instant experience.However, if the principle will not confront with others, in view of the procedure of constitution with neutrality ciency of the trivialization and atomization, aesthetics is towards others' common emotion before the subject towards the feelings of others, and it acquires the origin of power with shaping public life. As the significance of the procedure of constitution,"common sense", as well as its research paradigm experienced a priori turning, thanks to the following analysis:pre-modern "universality", Kant's "judgment", Arendt's "communicative common sense", and so on.In the interpretation of the "universality" of the aesthetic common sense, Vico's "imagination" and "morality" of Scottish Deists are two aspects extracted from the topic. On imagination in the aesthetic politics, Vico and Arendt showed its historical evolution of the "common consciousness" and "public Communication".The role of imagination in aesthetic politics was from sensation, rather than reason. Vico's civil theology, through the "imaginative concept" and "metaphor", explained the origin of human common sense, showing the the ontological sense of community of the imagination; Arendt's "exemplary" in judgment achieved the expection about the visit of the public nature, by special images and interactive communication, which is the way of understanding of the aesthetic common sense towards public action. The historical germination of the imagination in the "common sense" and "public Communication", rooted in the aesthetic opening to the lives of others, showing the aesthetic common sense. As the contribution to the modern law and politics, Scottish Deists believed that constitutional government remained vigilant about the human gloomy consciousness;"ideal politics" looking forward to the human can be perfect and rational. They knew that people in this intermediation, and focused on intermediation between the two. Deists draw concept as the interpretation for common sense, and common sense with the "Wu", is the "burst show" of common feeling in the body. Shaftesbury era condensed into public emotion; Hume indicated the sympathy for the feelings about others. As the words about the pre-modern expression of the "aesthetic common sense", its natural "Wu" is ahead of the modern natural right. The advance is in the body and aesthetic power is before the contractual rights. Kant's comments could see the differences between the subject "judgment", communication and introspection between the principal problems in the interpretation of Kant's philosophy, focusing on the reflective judgment prior discussion. Kant argued that the conflict was between people, and you must notify a priori "our" side has the possibility of the solution. The prior provisions of the aesthetic common sense were towards others' default."A priori" has never been meaned the relationship of my knowledge on the matter, but to the relationship between our cognitive ability. A priori method attributed the origin of the knowledge to the soul, pointing to the subjective principle of reflective judgment, and also pointing to the principles of communication between entities. Kant drew the common sense, awareness of heart to reflect on the validity and necessity of the rational principles. The principle of the natural form conforming the purpose, the sensing theory and so on, were the basis of common sense of intersubjectivity. Then, the aesthetic is transformed into the origin of the fundamental by the intermediary. Aesthetic common sense to invoke the common sense of "we", exposure to each other's position, changed the center of the individual subject, and the liberation of isolated desires. It is particularly pointed out disadvantages in the business community. As a result, the interpretation of Kant's transcendental philosophy should be put into the theory of the generation in the experienced philosophy. In the analysis of academic history, Schiller expands to Arendt's "aesthetic and political communication". How did I go into other human being's contacts and out of those? Arendt experienced the hardship of the subject and the main confrontation, and she hatred its evil; because she hated the private claustrophobia, she affectionately explored the human condition in public. Arendt's solution to the modern political situation is the breathtaking performance of virtuosity beyond "making". Beyond the material "production", making political contacts with ideal politics reached the ontological significance of productivity;"burst show" is the experience of modernity (i.e. aesthetic), namely the subversion of good will or the exclusion of material desires. Germinal judgment, i.e., generation of reflective judgment, imagination, aesthetic common sense is our interactions coexist, but also private open to the overall free settlement. Action and judgment have always been consistent, as actor and spectator should not been subdivided, which is Arendt' significance of communicative political aesthetics in the modern isolated world. The last but not the least, through the description of the jeans, we analyze the public appearance of the fashion. Jeans are the extreme fashion model. Jeans' popularity is the result of measurable time (time as commodity) in the capital society; Jeans' discussion takes it as the critique of modernity. The jeans gain the populace at personalized instant, and obtain a common sense by holding the public spirit. For permissive tolerance of the jeans on "utilitarianism", the criticism of modernity holds that the training of jeans wears with the exercise of "Lizheng", and the beauty of structure by the fashion group hopes to achieve a common system of solidarity mechanisms. Even if jeans expose to the democratic will of the rising class, the spirit of jeans' fashion is access to the public consideration, thus involved in the aesthetic judgment of responsibility of casuistry fashion question:should contain "can", or should mean "being inevitable". This will touch on the free egalitarianism and the citizen republicanism argument that the controversy highlights the aesthetic judgment on improving the quality of the eternal beauty. This concerns aesthetic distress,"Lizheng" society's political judgment, the moral enlightenment, the economic imitation and so on. The solution to these topics focuses on self-determination of aesthetic judgment.In the last section of the issue, we draw the aesthetics as a source of power in order to improve the limits of the procedure of constitution. As a result, the aesthetic acts as a legislative supplement and towars political action.
