後資本主義的文化探索一文主旨在探討後資本主義社會的現狀及其所衍生的意義，對現代人的衝擊。後資本主義是繼資本主義社會所發展出的一種社會形態，它承自資本主義但並不同於資本主義，兩者除了時間上的差異之外，還有政治、經濟、文化、社會等方面的差異。本文從兩者的不同著手探討，由比較中理解後資本主義的特質：資本主義建立了機械生產的工業社會、後資本主義建立了資訊的生產、服務的社會、消費的社會、多元的社會。資本主義來自一隻「看不見的手」，後資本主義是一雙「看的見的手」，它不是少數資本家的利益而是管理階層的利益。後資本主義所標榜的不是生產工具的擁有，而是消費的過程。資本主義社會是一個「個人主義」的社會。後資本主義社會是一個「新個人主義」的社會，在這個消費社會中，人與人之間的合作不見，所有的只是個人慾望的顯現。在後資本主義社會中，專業與服務業是社會的中間；兩極化的階級區分因著工人的勢力減弱，工人階級的消失，已無法解釋社會的現實，社會的權力轉為文化的權力，由內在引導轉為外在引導；由自覺與認同變成受媒體與廣告的影響。文化成為後資本主義的權力市場。

This article deals with the vital area of expression of post-capitalism in modem society. It based on comparative studies between the capitalism and post-capitalism in perspective of political, economic, culture, and society. As we all know post-capitalism comes after capitalism, but few point out the difference between them, which encourage me in this article to point out the essence of post-capitalism. Post-capitalism based on new technology of communication arid social organization. which challenged different aspect of life and human relationship. Computer changed the value of behavior on daily life, new individualism take place of the old individualism, consumer economy become the new trend of public opinion, emotion getting more important than reason to deal with problems. In this study I take a close look of post-capitalism in relation to the capitalism. I divided it into five parts, from what is culture through capitalism to post-capitalism to let the audience understand what is world we live with.
