历史终结论一度是一种时髦理论,其中尤以美籍日裔作家福山为主要代表。历史终结到底意味着什么?根据当代思想家雷蒙·潘尼卡的理解,种种历史终结论大多仍在历史的神话内立论,事实上,终结的不只是一种历史概念,而是一种时间意识(最终来说,是人的一种自我理解)在人类意识中的主导地位。现代世界的困境不仅造成当代人的生存危机,也引起当代人的自我理解的危机,但危机同时也是机遇,一种突破历史神话的超历史意识也许是当代人得以获救的希望所在。 Historical end theory was once a fashionable theory, especially the Japanese-American writer Fukuyama as the main representative. What does the end of history mean? According to the understanding of contemporary thinker Raymond Pennica, most of the end-of-history theories are still mostly within the myth of history. In fact, the end is not just a historical concept but a sense of time (Ultimately, a self-understanding of man) dominance in human consciousness. The dilemma of the modern world has not only caused the crisis of survival of the present generation, but also caused the crisis of contemporary self-understanding. However, the crisis is also an opportunity at the same time. An ultra-historical awareness that breaks through historical myths may be the hope that the present people can be rescued.
