民族认同危机还是民族主义宣示?——亨廷顿《我们是谁》一书中的族际政治理论困境

作者认为,亨廷顿的新作是其“文明冲突论”之理论框架的缩小版(美国版),即美国本土的“文化冲突论”。本文通过对“两论”一脉相承的逻辑关系的梳理,结合亨氏政治学理论的相关观点,分析了美国“文化冲突论”中有关“核心文化”、“美国信念”、移民问题、多元文化主义等论说中的实证矛盾和理论悖论,驳议了亨廷顿解决美国“民族认同危机”的外敌指向。文章认为,“文化冲突论”是立足于种族主义立场的美国民族主义的宣示,其实质是以退为进的全球霸权主义。

The author holds that the new book Who are We? by Samuel P.Huntington is the miniature(American version) of his “clash of civilizations” framework, i.e., American “clash of cultures”. By combing through the coherent logistic relations between these “two clashes” and combining relevant views of Huntington’s political theory, the article diagnoses factual contradictions and theoretical paradox in “core culture”, “American creed”, “immigration problem” and “multiculturalism” of American “clash of cultures”, and refutes Huntington’s hint of enemies from abroad in solving the “crisis of American national identity”. The article concludes that American “clash of cultures” is the manifestation of American nationalism based on racialism with its aggressive global hegemonism in the disguise of compromise in nature.
