| description | The independent, self-disciplined, and liberal Enlightenment Subject is the foundation for the discussion of community in traditional political philosophy. However, in the present age, the Enlightenment Subject is still unfinished, and instead, the economically helpless, politically disempowered, and culturally irrational “Multitude” is a true reflection of reality. Postmodern philosophy has created a society of coexistence, borderless and liquid, based on this “multitude”, opening up new possibilities for the future of our species. However, postmodern philosophy’s theories are impracticable because of their deconstructive and speculative nature. The information society and this community, however, overlap in several ways. The true possibility of this community also exists in the information society. |
