试论黄老政治哲学的“内圣外王之道”

On Huang-lao's Political Philosophy “The Way of Internal Sanctity and External Kingliness”

"内圣外王之道"集中体现了道家尤其是黄老政治哲学的根本旨趣,其理论结构包括交互融摄的"主术"和"心术"两个方面。"主术"包括理论原则和具体方法,而君臣关系和圣人何为的理论原则更值得讨论。"心术"的涵义也比较复杂,其中内蕴的心性论因素最耐人寻味也最值得发掘。黄老学派的身国同构理论颇值得注意,因为它反映出政治哲学与心性论之间的理论张力。

“The way of the sage within and the king without” embodies the fundamental purview of Taoism, especially Huang-lao political philosophy.“Master art” includes theoretical principles and specific methods, but the relationship between monarch and minister and the theoretical principles of what a sage is are worth discussing. The meaning of “heart art” is also complicated, among which the inner heart theory is the most intriguing and is worth exploring. The Huang-lao school's isomorphism of body and state is worth noting because it reflects the theoretical tension between political philosophy and the theory of mind and nature.
