这个时代,还有什么可以共享?
◇策划|刘自良 杨光毅 杨 昱 执行|本刊编辑部
千年以来,与中国传统士子孤傲情怀相匹配的生存方式就是:隐居南山,绝世而立。
而“共享”精神,其地位虽不显赫,但历史却还悠久。有据可查的是,明朝冯梦龙《东周列国志》,齐景公说:相国政务烦劳,今寡人有酒醴之味,金石之声,不敢独乐,愿与相国共享。
传统社会,朋友之间的借书或者共享一条信息,包括邻里之间互借东西,都是共享。
时间顺流而下,当代社会,共享有了个精确的后缀:经济。
共享经济,这个术语最早由两名美国教授在1978年提出。而共享经济现象,则是最近几年流行。其主要特点是,包含一个由第三方创建的、以信息技术为基础的市场平台。在中国,最著名的,就是共享单车。
或许你也听说:高铁、支付宝、共享单车、网购,被戏称为中国“新四大发明”。
不过,《今日重庆》2017年7月这个封面主题,虽然说的是共享经济,表达的内核却是:共享生活。
我们想要呈现的是,共享,已经进入到了我们生活的各个细节,它不仅是经济学,更是我们的一种生活方式。
于是,就很好理解现在的趋势:人们探讨的话题,已经从“什么是共享经济”转向“还有什么可以被共享”。这种转向,既是经济学概念下的,同样也晃动着社会学的影子。
For thousand years, traditional Chinese scholars seek to live in seclusion on the southern mountain as a way to show their pride and aloofness.
The spirit of sharing, although not prominent, enjoys a long history. This can be proved by a sentence said by Duke Jing of Qi, which is collected in Feng Menglong’ s Records of the States in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty ——“Your Excellency are tied up with state affairs,so I’d like to share with your Excellency some music and liquor that I find fascinating.”
In traditional society, the spirit of sharing can be seen in bookborrowing and message conveying between friends, and stuff borrowing and lending among neighbors.
As time goes, sharing in temporary society is linked to economy.
Sharing Economy is a term first coined by two American professors in 1978. It’s an economic phenomenon popular in recent years, featuring a market platform initiated by a third party and based on IT. In China, the most noticeable example is bike-sharing.
Maybe you have heard that high-speed rail, Alipay, bike-sharing and online shopping are called jokingly as the new four great inventions in China.
Although the cover of this volume in July says “Sharing Economy”, what we literally intend to elaborate is life of sharing.
What we hope to display is that sharing has entered every moment and corner of our life. It not only belongs to economics, but has also become one of our lifestyles.
In this way it would be easier to understand the current trend, the change of conversation topics from what is sharing economy to what is more to be shared. Such kind of change belongs both to economics and sociology.
What Is More to Be Shared Today?
