严复宪政思想演变的重新审视

A Re-examination of Yan Fu's Ideological Evolution of Constitutionalism

在中国近代政治思想史上,严复是一个相当独特、甚至有点让人费解的人物。对他的政治思想,尤其是宪政思想重新进行梳理,将其划分为三个演变阶段,透析每个阶段他为近代中国宪政制度建立所作的努力及主要宪政观念,可以对其宪政思想进行重新审视,肯定其贡献。

In the modern history of political thoughts, Yan Fu is a special, even a little obscure figure. To sort out his political thinking,particularly his idea of constitutionalism, by dividing it into three stages of evolution and analysizing the efforts he has made at every stage to establish Chinese constitutional government and the chief concepts about constitutionalism,will be helpful in re-examining his thought of constitutionalism and confirm his contribution.
