试论理想是历史性与逻辑性的统一

On the Ideal as the Unity of History and Logic

人是一种理想性动物,人类理想出自人们对现实社会的不满,是对现实社会的批判、抵制或反抗,它源于人们的希望,是人类对未来美好生活的憧憬和呼唤,也是对自身和社会完善的渴求,但理想并不是一种凭空的胡思乱想、空想或玄想,而是人类根据自己理性的判断给出的设想,它将人类许多美好的价值追求融入其中,通过对理想的追求,来展示人生的意义和价值,显现人的高贵性和尊严。但理想的本身来自现实,它是自由探索和追求规范的统一,也是历史性与逻辑性的统一,唯此,理想才能奠定其坚实的存在根基,成为具有历史必然性的一种选择。

Human is a kind of rational animals. Their ideals have come from their dissatisfaction of the real world, at the same time, are the critics, resistance or even rebellion against our society. They are derived from people＇s hopes, and are the yearning and calling for the better life in the future as well as the thirst for the perfection of both themselves and the society. However, such ideals are neither fantasy nor illusion, but the imagination based on their rationality which is fused with a lot of human values. Through the pursuit for their ideals, the significance and value of human life can be realized and shown, so can the human nobility and dignity. Nevertheless, such ideals have come from the reality, and are the unity between exploration and pursuit for standardization, as well as the unity between history and logic. Only on this basis can the ideals consolidate their own foundation and become the necessary choice of history.
