Abstract

The teacher-student relationship in traditional postgraduate education is a kind interpersonal relationship constructed by the paradigm of "object" on the basis of epistemology and determinism. This kind of teacher-student relationship based on subject-object binary opposition thinking mode is shown with the characteristics of strong controllability, transaction and employability, which seriously affects the students' mental health and perfect personality, and should be given with criticism and deconstruction. The constructed teacher-student relationship in postgraduate education from the view of postmodern is a new kind of interpersonal relationship, which is based on the ontology and life theory with the connotation of axiology and creationism, and the conversion of "Human being is end". This teacher-student relationship based on the concept of non centralization, irrationality and uncertainty of postmodernism, which essentially is a kind of relationship of "you and I" with "concern" as the core, thus embodying the essence of education, that is "Human being is the end".
