【摘要】： 美国文化战争是产生于20世纪的社会现象,它涉及当代美国社会生活领域的一系列具有争议性的问题,比如堕胎问题、同性恋问题、媒体审查制度、平权制度、多元文化主义、政教分离原则,等等。在各种文化问题的争辩中,文化保守派和文化自由派各持己见、针锋相对,有时甚至诉诸暴力。本文研究文化战争产生的历史根源,分析保守派和自由派在战争中所捍卫的不同道德标准,试图揭示文化战争的本质及社会意义。文化保守派认为美国从本质上讲是一个基督教国家,因此美国人有义务遵循上帝的旨意,按照传统的基督教道德标准规范他们的生活。但是,文化自由派认为,社会应以人为本,弘扬人文主义精神,关怀人的个性,提倡自我价值,尊重人的选择。文化战争涵盖社会生活的各个层面,其表现形式也多种多样,但究其本质,文化战争主要是价值观的冲突,是两种不同道德体系间的较量。文化保守派和文化自由派对美国的社会现实有不同的理解,对道德评判标准有不同的主张,他们都希望通过文化战争确定美国文化价值体系,掌握诠释美国本质的话语权,确立自己的政治和社会地位。
[Abstract]:The American Cultural War is a social phenomenon that emerged in the 20th century. It involves a series of controversial issues in the field of contemporary American social life, such as abortion, homosexuality, media censorship, equality, multiculturalism.Principle of separation of church and state, etc.Cultural conservatives and cultural liberals are at odds with each other and sometimes resort to violence in cultural debates.This paper studies the historical origin of the cultural war, analyzes the different moral standards defended by conservatives and liberals in the war, and tries to reveal the essence and social significance of the cultural war.Cultural conservatives believe that the United States is essentially a Christian nation, so Americans have an obligation to follow God's will and to regulate their lives in accordance with traditional Christian ethics.However, cultural liberals believe that society should be people-oriented, carry forward the spirit of humanism, care for individual character, advocate self-worth and respect people's choice.The cultural war covers all aspects of social life, and its forms of expression are also varied. But in its essence, the cultural war is mainly a conflict of values and a contest between two different moral systems.Cultural conservatives and cultural liberals have different understandings of the social reality of the United States and different opinions on moral standards. They all hope to determine the system of American cultural values through cultural warfare and to have a voice in interpreting the essence of the United States.Establish one's own political and social status.
