理解人类的命运:从规律性假设到复杂性假设——兼与王南湜教授商榷

To Comprehend Human's Fate or Destiny:From a Hypothesis of Regularity to a Hypothesis of Complexity——A Concurrent Discussion with Prof. Wang Nanshi

历史规律是理论思维在近代科学背景上为认识和理解历史而确立的核心假设。依托或围绕此种假设而在历史哲学层面所取得的思想成果,可以称之为规律性历史观。解决其(也包括其在历史规律与人的能动作用之间关系问题上的)抽象性问题,或许是当今时代总体性地深化哲学层面的历史认识的"节儿"所在。从"复杂性研究"这一科学本身的新的历史形态着眼,可以不必设定"理论世界"与"实践世界"的二元对立及其因应策略,也不必强调从"理论哲学"到"实践哲学"的立场转换及其特殊意义,只需对历史本身提出更具解释能力的假设即可,此即历史复杂性———历史本身的有序性与无序性的破缺性统一。这也同时意味着,历史复杂性观念或复杂性历史观有必要也有可能作为人类理解其自身命运的、新的思想自觉。

The law of history is a core hypothesis on the modern science background be founded by theoretical thinking to acknowledge and comprehend the history. Any thought relied on the law of history may be named ＂the common-sense view of history of regularity＂. The problem of its abstraetiveness may be a key of philosophies of history today. Seeing from the angle of the complexity research which is a new configuration of science, we should not have to enactment a binary opposition including its adaptive strategy to between the theoretical world and the living world, and not to underline a change standpoint including its special significance to from the theoretical philosophy to the practical philosophy, too. To deepen the common-sense view of history depends on a new and more effective hypothesis, which is the complexity of history--a broken dialectical unify between orders of history and no orders of history. In this regard, the idea of the complexity of history maybe turns into a new self-knowledge of human being
