论老子的治国智慧

On the Statecraft of Lao Zi

老子的治国思想是《道德经》一书的重要内容,老子之所以醉心于作为"天地根"、"天下母"、"玄之又玄"的"道"的"构造",无非是为"君人""应该如此"、"何以如此"提供一种无可辩驳的、形而上的根据。《道德经》全书充满着浓厚的"以天占人"、"推天道以明人事"的味道,它的治国智慧包括"君人"特质、无为之术、大国之道、人类美景等四个方面。

The elaboration of the statecraft takes a great length in Dao De Jing . The purpose why Laozi is so deeply engrossed in the structure of Dao which is expressed as ＂The root of heaven and earth ＂, ＂the mother of all＂, ＂mystery of all the mysteries＂ is to provide an incontrovertible and metaphysical base for the ＂should＂ and ＂how＂ behavior of the kings and lords. Dao De Jing is full of the flavors of ＂to the days of man＂, ＂heaven with ruing personnel＂, its governing wisdom including people＂s ＂king＂ character, doing nothing, the path to power and human beauty.
