社会发展与信任品性——阿兰·佩雷菲特的比较品性学解读

Social development and Confidence——An Interpretation of Alain Peyrefitte's Comparative Ethology

考察文艺复兴时欧洲拉丁语族与新教民族国家对待宗教改革与尘世事务以及人与人之间的关系的不同态度,揭示两大民族发展差距的真正原因,并在批判其他思想家的理论的基础上,阿兰.佩雷菲特提出了比较品性学研究方法。他认为非物质因素尤其是信任品性是社会发展的最深层次原因,他的思想对我国和谐社会的建设有现实的借鉴意义。

Through the survey of the history of the different attitudes that the Latin countries and the Protestant countries take towards such issues as the religious reform and the material affairs as well as the interpersonal relation during Renaissance period, Alain Peyrefitte exposes the real reasons that account for the developmental distances between these two nations. He puts forwards the research methods for comparative ethology on the basis of the criticism of the theories of some thinkers. He argues that the immaterial elements are the most profound reasons for the social development and strongly maintains the importance of confidence. His thoughts are of realistic value for the construction of the harmonious Chinese society.
