Research On The Rationality Basis Of Habermas’ Reconstruction Of Value Norms

Since the wave of modernization in Western society in the 19th century,the humanistic spirit with rationalism as its core appeal,as a product of the Enlightenment movement,has increasingly differentiated into multiple value orientations,which has triggered the era proposition of a crisis in value norms.In order to find the root of the crisis of value norms in modern society,clarify the basic flaws in the core of value norms in previous theories,then reconstruct the reasonable foundation of value norms,Habermas conducted research from the perspective of the rational spirit since the Enlightenment,pointing out that the conflict between "oneness" and "variety" inherent in traditional metaphysics is to blame.From Kant,Hegel,Carl Marx,to Modern positivism,they have all tried to rescue the relationship between the two from different perspectives in order to construct a normative social landscape,but their methodology has all fallen into the wrong perspective of taking identity as a priori presupposition,and thus cannot face the actual opposition between the priori and empirical nature of value norms.In response,Habermas called metaphysics "having no choice in the face of post metaphysical thought".From the perspective of post metaphysics,Habermas constructed a set of quasi transcendental principles for the construction of value norms by taking individuals who have not yet been identified as value subjects,using the transcendental relation derived from personal experience and life-the "life world" as the value field,the "Lebenswelt oriented" language as the construction method,and the communication between subjects in the life world as the construction method.This laid a new foundation for value norms.
