I am inspired when reading relevant theories by Habermas, one of which has become "exciting point" in my mind---intersubjectivity thought. While, I can’t help to associating "the scarcity of subjectivity " with the modern society. And it takes place dramatically in present day, but mankind society encounters the"suppression" by the civilization created by ourselves, such as the stature of subject has been undermined and abased to the object in community. In my opinion, Habermas offers us the way to compose the "subjectivity".Throughout his theories, we can find that Habermas has been weaving communicative action theory all the time, whose core is just intersubjectivity. And Habermas creates a series of such resourceful theories as universal pragmatics, negotiation ethics and reasonable intercourse theory to demonstrate the intersubjectivity.It is found that the more I dig the thought of intersubjectivity, the more I can recognize the intersubjectivity is closely knotted with social strides, such as liberal interest and learning (acquisition) mechanism, through combing Habermas’ intersubjectivity theory. And these theories do not only adapt to the western soil, but also has implications for China’s special conditions. At present, China has stood on the transitional stage, hooked into politics, economy and cultures.The relations and interests are intertwined,in this context,and different interest groups form different interest communities and consciousness via "embrace ".Interest group may have positive effect,or negative one. So,how to integrate different groups leans on the expansion of communicative action in subjectivity.In communication, groups forge learning mechanism,and mold the common interests.to guide different group ideology in compliance with mainstream ideology.The first part--Introduction. The introduction mainly manifests the cause of topic and significance of research. And I hammer out the logic framework and the methods of research through reading a number of materials and works from home and abroad. Meanwhile, it is emphasized that group ideology will take positive or negative effect on development of society.And, this part also defines the important concepts, through definitions which help readers understand the general ideas and structures of text from macroscopic views.The second part--The path of constructing intersubjectivity. The first element is the universal pragmatics which is the basic theory of intersubjectivity.It ensures that actors can understand each other,and lays foundation for intersubjectivity,with the norm binding The second element is the discourse ethics,and Habermas who holds ethical principles inherits Kant’s traditional ethics, critically. Norm is not meant to be transcendental being, but interacts among subjects,so that the universal morality will be recognized commonly, Habermas thinks, instead of Kant’s absolute imperatives. The third element is reasonable communicative acts, and communicative rationality forms core contents in a whole theory in Habermas. Acts mainly concerns language,act body and the knowledge subjects believe. Language and knowledge is to be applied rather than be commanded. So, intersubjectivity must be involved into the issue of rationality. Communicative norm is the rationality of human,society and subjective world,which complies with the social standards.The third part---The link between intersubjectivity and interest, learning. Subjectivity in this text is accomplished by three factors which includes universal pragmatics, discourse ethics and reasonable communicative action. The author intends to extract main ideas from three elements(understanding, individual liberty&universalism, and reasonable communication) to digest the interlink among them whose understanding belongs to transcendental and experimental category with social properties. Individual free and universalism refer to personal freedom combined with multi-subject, meanwhile, they obey the common ethical rule. Reasonable communication is ideal state in Habermas’theories. While, understanding, individualism and universalism are to realize rational communication in aims. And, interest is a start of understanding; learning provides knowledge for power to prompt self-revolution in body, to improve the interest, and they breach the rule of tool rationality over reasonable communication,commonly.The fourth part--The link between group ideology and interest, learning. Dynamic development of group ideology mirrors the strength of interest and learning, and,moreover, the presence of knowledge acts as value pillar for heterogeneous bodies with common ideology.Meanwhile,mechanism of learning prompts group ideology to evolve constantly. The fifth part--the link between construction of intersubjectivity and formation of group ideology.The characters of intersubjectivity and development of group ideology find expression in interest.The competence of body also seems to change in grade,with types and levels of knowledges changing.The group with knowledge is in the process of differentiation and integration,which can also associate two parties with integration.The sixth part--Main enlightenment for construction of mainstream ideology. First, attention to the research of group awareness. Second, analyze the formation of group ideology and promote the construction of mainstream ideology.
