文化定型的哲学思考

Philosophical Connotation of Stereotyping

文化定型具有积极作用也具有负面作用,学者们历来冠之以文化定型“悖论”。本文从哲学的层面来观照文化定型,认为文化定型与其它人类认知一样具有自身的矛盾,是浮离于现实的理论抽象,是需要不断发展的人类认识。只有把握文化定型的哲学内涵才能更好地指导文化教学。

Stereotyping has positive as well as negative effects,which has been labeled by Chinese scholars as stereotyping paradox.This paper explores stereotyping from the philosophical perspective,and argues that stereotyping,the same as other human cognitive process,has its own contradictions. As theoretical construction,it distances itself from reality.It changes with time.Only we have understood the philosophical connotation of stereotyping in our mind can we equip ourselves better in culture teaching.
