中国文化的普遍主义精神与普遍主义使命——专访黄裕生教授

Universal Spirit and Universal Mission of Chinese Culture——Interview with Professor Huang Yusheng

先秦诸子学说的出现,特别是孔子仁学的确立,把中国文化与历史带进了对普遍性原则和普遍主义理念的自觉与承担。任何把中国文化特殊主义化都是对中国文化的贬低,任何以中国传统文化的特殊性为理由拒绝普遍原则或拒绝与其他文化进行对话,都是基于对中国文化精神的误解。如果会有中国文化的"复兴",那么必定是一种普遍主义理念与普遍主义精神在中国的复兴,而这在根本上只有通过与其他本原文化的相遇、会通才是可能的。在"国学"热的今天,需要警惕"文化义和团"的盲目与"文化原教旨主义"的狭隘。

The emergence of the doctrine of pre-Qin philosophers, especially the establishment of the Confucian be- nevolence concept, had brought the Chinese culture and history into the awareness of and accountability for the principle of universality and the concept of universalism. Any denial of universal principle or refusal to have dialogue with other cultures for the excuse of uniqueness of traidtional Chinese culture is misunderstanding of the Chinese cultural spirit. If there will be a ＂rejuvenation＂ of Chinese culture, it must be one that restores the concept of universalism and universal spirit in China, which can only be possible through communication and integration wtith other indigenous cultures. Now with the zeast for ＂Traditional Chinese Studies＂, we must be alert of the blindness of ＂Cultural Boxer Movement＂ and the narrowness of ＂cultural fundamentalism＂.
