Autonomy of Action in late Modernity - subjective Claims, institutional Basis and structural Dynamics of a normative guiding Principle

自18世纪以来，臣民寻求自主地生活并将这样做的想法，不仅是一种社会承诺，也是一种明显的强加。在中央机构现代化的过程中，对它们进行了重新设计，以便它们只有在得到能够自主代理的行为者的补充时才能发挥作用。当代的社会诊断目前一致认为，自治的主张及其实现的机会正在发生变化，但在自治的范围是扩大还是缩小的问题上存在分歧。这个问题是从主体的愿望与现代机构的功能条件之间的匹配关系的角度来具体探讨的。因此，本文考察了(1)自主性主体提出了哪些主张，(2)自主性的具体潜力是现代制度的功能前提，最后(3)自主性的可行性目前是否以及如何具体地被社会动力改变，以及由此对制度秩序的影响是什么。变化的过程将从时间社会关系的角度进行重构，因为时间性结构是任何形式的自主实践的内在条件。其目的是以详细的方式探讨自治主张和制度化进程之间的协同作用以及它们之间的紧张和紧张，并检查随之而来的加速动力以及灵活性限制是否会造成这些维度之间的匹配问题。

The idea that subjects seek to autonomously live their lives and shall do so, has not only been a social promise but also a manifest imposition since the 18th century. Central institutions, in the course of their modernization, were redesigned in a way so that they are functional only if and when complemented by actors capable of autonomous agency. Contemporary social diagnoses currently converge in the observation that change in the claims of autonomy and in their chances of realization is taking place, but there is divergence on the question whether the scope for autonomy widens or narrows. This question is to be pursued specifically from the perspective of matching relations between the aspirations of subjects and functional conditions of modern institutions. Therefore it is examined (1) which claims to autonomy subjects raise, (2) which specific potentials for autonomy are functional prerequisites of modern institutions and finally (3) whether and how concretely the feasibility of autonomy is currently changing by social dynamics and what consequences for the institutional order follow from that. The processes of change will be reconstructed from the perspective of social relations of time, because temporality structures are inherent conditions of any form of autonomous practice. The aim is to explore synergies between autonomy claims and institutionalization processes as well as tensions and strains between them in a detailed way and to examine whether acceleratory dynamics as well as the flexibility constraints, which come along with them, pose problems of fit between these dimensions..
