洪仁玕与福泽谕吉思想之比较

A Comparative Study between Hong Ren-gan and Yukichi Fukuzawa

近代以来,在学习西方先进资本主义经验,追求国富民强的亚洲各国思想家中,洪仁玕走在前列。他于1859年提出了《资政新篇》,主张"革故鼎新",向西方资本主义学习。这是近代中国第一个比较完整的资本主义建设方案,具有一定的先进性和前瞻性。而日本启蒙思想家福泽谕吉等人成立"明六社"宣传维新思想,是在1873年,比洪仁玕晚了十几年。相比较福泽谕吉等日本维新思想家,洪仁玕的思想更符合"以人为本"的理念,以民众的利益和幸福为依归,具有先进的理论价值和社会意义。

Since modern times,progressive eastern scholars and thinkers began learning from the advanced science and technology of the Western countries.As one of the earliest thinkers learning from Western,Hong Ren-gan advocates＂Reforming the Past＂ and building a modern nation on the basis of following Western capitalism.His proposal with ＂The New Theory for Assisting the Management of State Affairs＂,which has certain advancement and foresight,is the first relatively complete plan to develop capitalism in modern China.Yukichi Fukuzawa is also a well-known torchbearer of important standing in Japan,and a vocal advocater of the idea of modernization and emulation of Western civilization.By comparison,Hong Ren-gan＇s people-oriented thought has some positive significance,which embodies a concentrated reflection of humanism.
