Dominant discourses generated by a capitalistic economy—such as the trust in the market’s ability to provide an efficient allocation of resources, that states back the market-focused economy, the emphasis on participants’ freedom and competition in the market, and the necessity of global market expansion—have engendered various acute or chronic phenomena of human alienation. The extreme competition in every sphere of human life as well as the increasing polarization between the rich and the poor has caused various manifestations of alienation, such as depression, helplessness, and hopelessness, which require prompt pastoral responses. This paper suggests that pastoral caregivers might respond prophetically and proactively to this by: exposing the alienating dominant discourse; uncovering the oppressive mechanisms hidden in that discourse; helping individuals explore and reframe their own stories in the midst of the mainstream discourse; and empowering individuals to author their own resilient and reconciling discourses by squarely facing the dominant and alienating discourse of capitalistic economy.

危险遭遇与和解故事:对资本主义市场经济的主要故事的牧养回应

资本主义经济所产生的支配性话语,例如对市场提供有效资源分配能力的信任,这说明了以市场为中心的经济,强调了参与者在市场上的自由和竞争,以及全球化的必要性。市场扩展-造成了各种人类疏远的急性或慢性现象。在人类生活的各个领域中的极端竞争以及贫富之间日益加剧的两极分化已经导致了各种疏离的表现,例如抑郁,无助和绝望,这需要牧师迅速做出回应。本文认为,牧师可以通过以下方式对预言家做出积极反应:揭露疏远的主导性话语;发现隐藏在该话语中的压迫机制;在主流话语中帮助个人探索和重构自己的故事;通过正视资本主义经济的主导性和疏离性话语,使个人有权撰写自己的和解与和解话语。
