摘　　要：Hartmut Rosa argues that our modern and post-modern societies can be understood through the notion of dynamic stabilization-institutions require growth to maintain themselves.Part of the impetus behind the acceleration that drives dynamic stabiliza-tion is the desire to make the world more available,attainable,and accessible.On both the institutional and individual levels,this is translated into making the world more within our reach,more engineerable,predictable,and controllable.Paradoxically,suc-cess in these areas is often accompanied by the world becoming increasingly silent,cold,and unresponsive.We feel alienated or that our world relation has failed.Rosa’s solution is to reestablish resonance with the world.In this paper,we argue that his notion of resonance depends on a degree of atomic agency that muffles its own effi-cacy.The Confucian notion of ritual offers a more dispersed notion of agency.Rather than seeing oneself,others,and the world as distinct agents or indivisible entities,a ritualized approach sees them as mutually constitutive.It is true even on the level of agency,which drastically changes our relationship with the world.
