梁漱溟“内圣外王”思想与中国现代化道路的探索

LIANG Shuming's Thought "Inside the Saint,Outside the King" and the Exploration of China's Modernization Path

"内圣外王"思想是中国古代儒家思想的一个重要哲学命题,涉及到儒家的人格理想和社会政治理想。梁漱溟被美国学者艾恺(Guvs.Alitto)称之为"最后一个儒家",也是二十世纪众多寻求中国发展道路的知识分子中唯一身体力行儒家"内圣外王"理想之人。梁氏一生都在试图寻求解决"中国问题"和"人生问题"的出路,试图在中国历史之出路与人生价值之选择之间达成统一。梁氏深受儒家思想文化的影响,认为中国现代化的本质是文化现代化,中国现代化的途径是乡村建设。他的一生陷入现代化与人性的两难之中,其关于中国现代化的理论构想也就必然充满了种种逻辑疏漏。

LIANG Shuming is called ＂the last Confucian＂ by American scholar Guys Alitto. Among many Chinese intellectuals looking for the development path of china in the 20th century, LIANG is the only one physically complying with the Confucian ideal of ＂inside the saint, outside the king＂. LIANG devotes all his life to try to solve the problem of ＂China＂ and ＂life＂. Under the influence of Con- fucian culture, LIANG insists that the essence of modernization is culture modernization and the way to realize modernization is country- side construction in China. His theory on China＇ s modernization is filled with all sorts of logic defects.
