由“矜尚远西”到“本自根生”——梁漱溟探索“中国出路”的文化自觉及其启示

From “Advocating Western Methods” to “Sticking to Chinese Cultural Root”——On Liang Shu-ming's Cultural Consciousness of Seeking the Prospects of Chinese Culture and Its Enlightenment

梁漱溟是中国近现代史上著名的思想家,"中国问题"是其一生思考的两大问题之一(另一为人生问题)。在中国出路问题上他曾一度"矜尚远西",但随后又将目光转向中国固有文化,主张"本自根生",创建"中国式民主",表现出极其可贵的文化自觉。梁氏文化自觉不仅有助时人增强民族文化自信,还为后人探寻中国自己的民主之路提供了可资思考和借鉴的理论及实践路径。

Liang Shu-ming was a well-known thinker in Chinese modern history.Chinese society was one of the two issues to which Liang had been seeking a solution all along （the other is about life）.On the way out of Chinese society he once ＂advocated Western methods＂,he then turned to Chinese traditional culture,and urged ＂sticking to Chinese cultural root＂ and creating ＂democracy of China style＂,which showed extremely valuable cultural consciousness.Liang＇s work not only helps people enhance national cultural self-confidence,but also provides valuable reference of theory and practice to explore the path to Chinese democracy for later generations.
