1937 - 現在幾點了?時間政治與文化 What Time Is It? The Cultural Politics of Time


教育目標 Course Target

分秒必爭,現在幾點了?現代社會的發展,時間是日常生活重要的尺度。在我們的日常生活中,從小教育的認識時鐘,學習按時間起床上課下課,到了出社會就業之後的打卡上班和績效計算,如馬克思指出,標準化時間也是生產力和價值計算的重要依據,而統一標準的時間擴大了現代社會橫跨地域的商業交易和流通規模。時間不只是分秒的計算,其象徵意涵即時間的社會性與政治性所在。現象學提出我們當下的存在,都是根據過去的經驗並藉此設想未來,進而形成我們於當下的判斷和行動,因而我們的日常就是由過去、現代、未來三個維度構成,並因為行動的社會性,使得時間也帶有社會性,因此德國哲學家Norbert Elias就指出時間是協調社會行動的重要象徵制度。時間的社會性也帶出了兩種現代社會主要的時間想像與維繫當中的政治。一個是因著現代工作時間而來的幸福、進步的線性時間觀與規範(成家立業)等等維繫了資本主義制度和異性戀親密關係的運作,而美國酷兒政治的不同時間性則對此進行了反思批判。另一個是現代性與歷史的關係,過去如何在當下被記憶與被感受,以及由記憶、感受而延伸出來的情感(例如創傷、哀悼)和未來的行動(述說、紀念),包括對於戰後與殖民的轉型正義,以及近年的懷舊與保守政治復闢,皆體現了在記憶當中的時間社會性與當中的政治。因此這門課,期待同學一起認識時間的政治性,並從其日常生活經驗與記憶,探究日常生活與時間的關係。Every minute and second will be in conflict. How many minutes are there now? In the development of modern society, time is an important measure in daily life. In our daily life, from the understanding of primary education, learning to get up at the same time and go to class and leave classes, and after leaving society, check in and work and performance calculations. As Marx pointed out, standardized time is also an important basis for production capacity and value calculations, and the unified standard time has expanded the cross-regional business transaction and circulation scale of modern society. Time is not just a calculation of minutes and seconds, it symbolizes the social and political nature of real time. The phenomenon suggests that our present existence is based on past experiences and through this, we can imagine the future, thus forming our judgment and actions in the present. Therefore, our daily life is composed of three dimensions: past, modern, and future. Because of the social nature of action, time also has social nature. Therefore, German philosopher Norbert Elias pointed out that time is an important symbolic system for coordinating social actions. The sociality of time also brings two main time imagination and politics in modern society. One is the happiness of modern working time, the progressive linear time view and regulations (beginning a family) and other operations that have built up capitalist systems and distinctive relationships, and the different timelines of American cool politics have reflected on this. Another is the relationship between modern sex and history. How the past was remembered and felt in the past, as well as the emotions (such as incisiveness, mourning) and future actions (speaking, condolences), including the transformational righteousness of post-war and colonization, and the revival of old and conservative politics in recent years, have all manifested the time and sociality in memory and politics in the memory. Therefore, in this class, I hope that classmates will understand the political nature of time together, and explore the relationship between daily life and time from their daily life experience and memory.
