摘要
现代民主的产生以国家与社会二元分化为前提,但其成长却有赖于两者之间的协调、平衡或合作,公共生活由此产生。所以,民主的成长,不仅需要制度建构,而且需要公共生活的建构。不同的民主形态形成不同的公共生活,可将其概括为三种:组织化的公共生活、私域性的公共生活和有机的公共生活。公共生活的每一次演进,都意味着民主体系的成长。战后,人类民主发展创造了与之相适应的有机的公共生活。有机的公共生活是社会与国家有机互动,共同创造的,而国家与社会恪守各自权利所形成的责任要求,是这种公共生活的基础。这体现了民主生活的另一种建构形式,即从责任建构民主。
Although with the polarization of the state and society as its prerequisite, modern democracy owes its progress to the harmony, balance, or cooperation of the two. Public life has thus come into being. In order for democracy to make progress, not only is institutional establishment a must, but also the formation of public life. Democracy in different forms can produce different public lives that may be generally classified into three types: organized, privatized, or organic. Every new phase in the evolution of public life signifies the advancement of the democratic system. The organic public life, an adaptive creation of the post-war human democracy, is formed in the dynamic process of the state interacting with society and is thus created by the two on the foundation of the responsibilities that demand meticulous conformity from the state and society, respectively. This has demonstrated yet another mode of establishing a democratic life, namely, construction of democracy from responsibilities.
