琳达·哈琴对后现代主义进行的阐释和辩护貌似中立、辩证,其实在理论逻辑上有诸多悖谬之处。为了避开詹姆逊和伊格尔顿的文化批判,她对后现代主义做了精英式的界定,为其负面影响推卸责任;她还把后现代建筑作为理论模型,通过对现代主义的简单化处理达到抬高后现代主义的目的;至于哈琴极力推崇的后现代主义消解历史和主体性的“问题化”策略,更是问题重重:披着进行彻底的批判和质疑的外衣,无可避免地走向虚无主义和犬儒主义,从而丧失了进行任何有效的政治实践和政治变革的可能。 Linda Harqin’s seemingly neutral and dialectical interpretation of and justification for postmodernism has in fact many absurdities in theoretical logic. In order to avoid the cultural criticism of Jameson and Eagleton, she made an elitist definition of postmodernism and shirked her responsibility for its negative impact. She also used postmodern architecture as a theoretical model, and through the simplification of modernism To achieve the purpose of elevating post-modernism, Postmodernism strongly advocated by hakkin is more problematic in its historical and subjective strategy of “solving problems.” It is a matter of grasping the coat of thorough criticism and questioning, Inevitably, we are going to nihilism and cynicism, thus losing the possibility of any effective political practice and political change.
