中医现代化迫切需要现代中医理论,已是共识。但如何建立以及建立一种什么样的现代中医理论,远无共识。本文在总结出科学理论构建共性规律基础上,尝试给出有望形成共识基础的回答。首先阐明中医学理论发展,应借鉴生命和医学科学理论作用和价值的趋向;其次证明中医学及中医理论属于传统医学及理论,指出传统医学及其中医学和理论的局限;其后揭示出传统医学及中医学和中医理论国内外发展的必然趋向;逻辑得出构建现代中医基础理论的必然选择;分析国内外不同学科新理论构建过程及方法步骤,发现其共性的五步曲规律;提出现代中基理论构建三原则和五步骤,论证其由传统现象描述迈向机制阐明理论变革中的重要作用,在国内外发展必然趋势下中医理论所具有的科学价值。

The modernization of Traditional Chinese Medicine （TCM） is urgent need of the modern theory of TCM, is a consensus. But, How to establish and what kind of modern TCM theory, is far from a consensus. Based on the summarization of the common law in the construction of scientific theory, we are trying to give a answer that are expected to form a consensus. Firstly, we have illustrated the trend that the development of TCM theory should learn from the life and medical sciences theory function and value; Secondly, we have proven that TCM and TCM theory belongs to the traditional medicine and theory and pointed out the limitation of the traditional medicine, TCM and its theory. And then we have revealed the inevitable trend of traditional medicine, TCM and its theory development at home and abroad, logically obtained the inevitable choice of constructing the modern TCM basic theory; Lastly, we have analyzed the different discipline new theory construction process and method at home and abroad and discovered the common five steps rule, put forward three principles and five steps of constructing modern TCM basic theory, demonstrated its important role during the theoretical revolution promoting Chinese Medicine theory from phenomenon description to mechanism clarification and the scientific value of Chinese Medicine theory in the domestic and foreign development trend.
