地图表征的权力运作机制:建构的知识话语

作为关于群体认知和行为的社会心理学理论,社会表征从群体博弈和建构的视角解释了成员之间如何共享知识、实现沟通,以及被权力建构并成为权力扩张工具的心理机制。地图作为一种社会表征,以群体共享的知识符号系统形成知识话语权力,影响、规训着社会中的每个个体。它通过宏观和微观两方面的有机联系,耦合了社会和个体,不仅成为政治、经济、文化权力嵌入的载体,也成为了权力的拥有者,参与社会的更迭和演化。地图中的权力运作机制表现为权力主体隐匿于地图这一建构的“真实”中,实现了从显性的政治、经济、文化权力到话语权力的转换,并通过对个体心理认知、意识行为的规约,以及对共识性规范的认同和自觉遵守,实现了权力扩张。

The power operation mechanism of map representations: Constructed knowledge discourse

As a social psychology theory of group cognition and behavior, social representa-tions theory explains the psychological mechanism of how members share knowledge and communicate with each other from the perspective of group game and construction. Moreover, the theory also explains how the social representations are constructed by power and become tools of power expansion. Maps are social representation, which influence and discipline every individual in the society through the knowledge symbol system shared by groups. As a coupling between society and individuals through the macroscopic and microscopic organic links, it becomes not only the carrier of political, economic and cultural power embedding, but also the owners of power and participates in the changes and evolution of society. The power operation mechanism in the map is manifested as the power subject hiding in the "reality" constructed by the map, in fact, has realized the transformation from explicit political, economic, cultural power to the implicit discourse power. And through the discipline of individual psychological cognition, consciousness, behavior, as well as the recognition and voluntary compliance of consensual norms, the power realizes the expansion at last.
