儒家伦理对当下中国人的影响

Influences of Confucian Ethics on the Current Chinese

儒家传统精神不仅存在于学理的层面,而且还以基因与血脉的根源性特性存在于民间。当下不同阶层的中国人对儒家伦理既抱着不同程度的同情与敬意,又与之存在着复杂而微妙的隔阂与疏离;不管人们读没读过“四书五经”,作为基因与血脉的传统精神无时无刻不在通过人们的思维方式、行为模式影响着中国社会的经济、政治和文化的运作。儒家伦理的未来命运取决于当下中国人有着何种生活内容、何种生命问题,因而采取何种态度与方法来批判继承和转换儒学。与之相应,中国人的生活、生命以至命运也会受到以儒学为血脉的社会主义新文化的建设状况的制约。

The traditional Confucian spirit not only lies in the theoretic level,but does in the folk with its foundational characteristics as Chinese gene and ancestry. Nowadays, people from different estates have different sympathies and respect, and whatg more, they would feel lack of understanding and alienated as well, which are always complex and delicate. No matter whether people have read the“Four Books and Five Classics” ,the traditional spirit in them as the Chinese gene and ancestry have been affecting our social economy, politics and culture through our thinking manners and behavior modes. The future fate of Confucian ethics relies on what modern Chinese would have by living connotation and life problems, and then how we would inherit and transform the Confucianism critically. Corresponding to it,our existence,life and even fortune would be restricted by the socialisti new culture with her origin of the Confucianism.
