圣君清官:经济宿命、政治理想与文化隐喻

Sage-king and Impartiality:Economic Fate,Political Ideals and Cultural Metaphor

以"性善论"为根基的儒家思想在中国传统政治文化中占据主导地位,是滋生圣君清官观念的土壤,中国成熟的农业文明则维持着以"为民作主"为自我标榜的圣君清官文化氛围。当代中国社会依然承续着传统政治文化的某些深层机制,权力的人格化与人治的普遍化都表征着圣君清官观念的顽强生命力,这种深入社会心理的思想意识隐喻了现代政治文明构建的艰难。

Confucianism founded by ＂Virtue Theory＂dominates in the Chinese traditional political culture,and is the soil for breeding the concept of sage- king and impartiality, while the mature Chinese agricultural civilization maintains the cultural atmosphere of sage- king and impartiality which is glorified by ＂for the people in charge＂. Contemporary Chinese society still bears some deep mechanism of the traditional political culture,and the personification of the power and the generalization of the rule of man both represent the vitality of the concept of sage- king and impartiality,and this ideology deep into the social psychological metaphors the difficulty in the building of the modern political civilization.
