社会视域下的“自由”新论

A New Theory of “Freedom” in perspective of society

"自由"是社会主义的价值本质和价值目标,意指"对必然的认识和对客观世界的改造"。作为社会主义核心价值观的"自由"是内在自由与外在自由的统一、形式自由与实质自由的统一、个人自由与社会自由的统一。自由与"自由主义"存在原则的界限,自律不意味着压缩自由,自由也绝不赞同任性。实现"自由"必须以尊重客观规律为前提,通过弄清事物发展的各种可能性实现选择自由;解放和发展生产力,通过提高经济实力和科技水平为更好地实现自由奠定物质基础;坚持"以人为本"和"法律面前人人平等",通过法治和民主政治制度保障人民的自由权利;重视教育,通过提高人民的文化素养、知识水平和创新能力创造实现自由的条件;解放思想、冲破教条主义的禁锢,通过具体的历史的社会实践实现自由。
