摘要

[目的/意义]在算法推荐深度嵌入社会运行的当下,以信息茧房为代表的传统隐喻,因其静态、批判及二元对立视角,难以充分解释当下具有协同性、动态性与建设性等特征的复杂信息生态。文章引入信息蜂房的新隐喻,试图突破既有理论范式的局限性。[方法/过程]首先,解构了信息蜂房的要素,构建了包含边界环境层、机制核心层与价值沉淀层的立体理论框架。随后,通过对比信息茧房与信息蜂房在空间形态、运行机制、主体关系与治理导向上的差异,指出信息蜂房实现了从封闭、静态、单向的警示性视角到开放、动态、互构的建设性视角的理论转向。进而,从理论拓展、治理路径与实践机制三方面阐述了信息蜂房的理论创新性与实践指导价值。[结果/结论]信息蜂房作为更具包容性的隐喻,为理解与塑造算法时代开放、健康、可持续的信息生态提供了新的分析路径。

Abstract

[Purpose/significance] In the current era where algorithmic recommendations are deeply embedded in social operations, traditional metaphors represented by the "information cocoon" are insufficient to fully explain the complex information ecology characterized by collaboration, dynamism, and constructiveness, due to their static, critical,and binary perspectives. This study introduces the new metaphor of the "information hive" to overcome the limitations of existing theoretical paradigms. [Method/process] The study first deconstructs the elements of the information hive,constructing a three-dimensional theoretical framework encompassing the boundary environment layer, the core mechanism layer, and the value precipitation layer. Subsequently, by comparing the differences between information cocoon and information hive in terms of spatial form, operating mechanism, subject relationship, and governance orientation,the study points out that information hive achieves a theoretical shift from a closed, static, and one-way warning perspective to an open, dynamic, and mutually constructive perspective. Furthermore, the study elaborates on the theoretical innovation and practical guidance value of the information hive from three aspects: theoretical expansion, governance paths, and practical mechanisms. [Result/conclusion] The study shows that the information hive, as a more inclusive metaphor, provides a new analytical path for understanding and shaping an open, healthy, and sustainable information cology in the algorithmic age.
