童年是“社会建构的”这一普遍主张在多大程度上影响了关于童年的“内在”和“特殊”商品的伦理辩论?哲学家们在批评过度以成人为中心和面向未来的童年概念时提到了这类商品。有些商品是专门针对儿童的,也就是说,它们只对儿童有益,对成年人没有好处,这种观点似乎是以理解儿童“是什么”以及他们与成年人有何不同为前提的。然而,如果接受社会建构主义的观点,就不能假定童年是一种既定的。本文认为,社会建构主义对童年的理解并没有破坏关于童年的道德地位和利益的辩论,但是,从我们所知道的童年不是一种自然和普遍现象的洞察力中可以得出重要的教训。
Abstract To what extent does the common claim that childhood is ‘socially constructed’ affect the ethical debate on the ‘intrinsic’ and ‘special’ goods of childhood? Philosophers have referred to this kind of goods in their critique of overly adult-centred and future-oriented conceptions of childhood. The view that some goods are child-specific, in the sense that they are only good for children, not for adults, seems to presuppose an understanding of what children ‘are’, and how they differ from adults. However, if the social-constructionist view is accepted, it cannot be assumed that childhood is a given. This essay claims that the social-constructionist understanding of childhood does not undermine the debate on the moral status and the goods of childhood, but that nevertheless important lessons can be drawn from the insight that childhood, as we know it, is not a natural and universal phenomenon.
