论先秦儒家政治伦理思想中的“和”与“分”

On the “Aggregation” and “Separation” of Confucians Political Ethics in Qin Dynasty

"和"与"分"是先秦儒家政治伦理思想中的重要范畴。在政治生活中,"和"可具体化为"人和"、"政和"与"共和","分"可操作化为"名分"、"职分"等。"和"、"分"看似一对相对立的范畴,实则彼此间存在千丝万缕的联系。它们拥有共同的理论基础、相似的人性假设以及一致的客观效果。它们是先秦儒家"道德理想主义"与"伦理中心主义"思维理念的集中体现。其内含的真知灼见,对当代社会政治文明建设亦有着重要的启示意义。

＂Aggregation＂ and ＂Separation＂ are important categories of Confucian Political Ethics in Qin Dynasty. In political life,＂aggregation＂ may be embodied as ＂people＂,＂governance＂and＂republic＂, while ＂separation＂ as ＂birthright＂,＂duty＂, etc.＂Aggregation＂and＂Separation＂seem a pair of opposed categories, but inextricably are linked to each other.They have common theoretical basis, similar assumptions of human nature and consistent objective results. They are Confucians ＂moral idealism＂and embody the thinking philosophy of ＂ethical centrism＂. The construction of contemporary political civilization can gain enlightenment from them.
