Sažetak
In interpreting current social and political processes, one should recognize
new and mutually different political and democratic forces, which should offer
an alternative to trends which had generated the crisis. Since totalitarian
regimes such as fascism and communism (and even neoliberalism) did not
solve the crisis of capitalism in the past, writers like Habermas, Searle, Luhmann,
Wolin, Vesting and others do not consider them as potential solutions
for the contemporary crisis. The solutions are not being sought within the
framework of universalisation of particular interests either. Even less they look
for a solution within some universal virtue that would represent all other
virtues. On the contrary – the contemporary theory recognizes that humanity
in its lifeworld operates within different media and that the unified lifeworld
is represented in different, incommensurable media, so the new theory attempts
to create a modus vivendi among various representations of the world,
not one single unitary interpretation. Contemporary theories are interested in
the issue of coexistence between incommensurable differences, and thus they
ask: how to preserve pluralism of social life. This process remains open. On
the other hand, any idea of a single solution within a single unified medium
leads to renewal of totalitarianisms, or even a world war, a new Holocaust or
a new Hiroshima.
