论思想解放的内在机制

On the Inherent Mechanism of Emancipation of the Mind

今天的解放思想已经从人类社会特殊历史时刻才出现的重大的思想和理论变革运动转变为社会发展的经常性、普遍化、常规化、常态化的内在要求和有机组成部分。解放思想是人之生存结构中给定性与创造性、自然性与超越性之间的张力和冲突的集中体现,它的动力机制和制约机制具体表现为:创新的与保守的思想观念之间的张力和冲突、开放的与封闭的思维方式之间的张力和冲突、现代的与传统的文化模式之间的张力和冲突。在新的解放思想进程中,我们不仅要积极推动各个领域各个层面的具体的解放思想,而且要高度关注解放思想的机制体制建设,特别是解放思想的文化创新机制的形成,确立开放包容和求异创新的思维方式,培育尊重个性和创新的文化模式。

At present,emancipating the mind has been turned from a significant movement of ideological and theoretical reform initiated at a special historical moment in human society to an inherent requirement and organic constituent of social development that has been regularized,universalized,routinized and normalized.It is the condensed embodiment of the tension and conflict between the determinate and the creative,the natural and the transcendental in the structure of human existence.Its dynamic and restrictive mechanisms are specifically manifested as the tension and conflict between innovative and conservative ideas,open and closed mindsets,and modern and traditional cultural patterns.In the course of a new emancipation of our thinking,we should not only actively promote specific emancipation of the mind on every level and in every sphere,but also highlight the institutional construction of a mechanism for such emancipation,and especially the formation of a mechanism for cultural innovation.We must create an institutional culture which respects different ideas;establish a mindset that is open,inclusive,creative and cherishes difference;and cultivate a cultural model that respects individuality and innovation.
