摘要
严复思想中最具特色的是"珍视传统、崇尚秩序、排斥激变、主张渐变"的保守主义思想。这种保守主义思想的哲学基础是进化论、经验论,在此基础上形成了严复式的渐进变革主张——教育救国。严复作为传统的虔诚的自由守望者,他保守主义思想的历史际遇是悲惨的,这不仅有中国近代社会大环境的外因,还有其自身缺憾这一内因。但是,这种"被放弃的主张"不仅在当时对中国的进步有巨大价值,而且对当前中国政治文明的发展也具有重要的启示意义。
The most distinguishing feature of Yan Fu＇s political thought is his conservatism, which contains cherishing the traditional culture, advocating order, opposing radical changes, and supporting gradual progress. This thought is the philosophical foundation for the theory of evolution as well as em- piricism. Basing on this thought, he advised saving the nation by education. In the modern history of China, this thought is faced with tragic experience due to both external environment and its inherent de- fect. But this abandoned thought has significant value to China＇s modernization, especially to China＇s development of political civilization.
