共和主义的自由观:无支配的自由

Republican Conception of Freedom:Freedom as Non-Domination

当代西方政治哲学有两种主要的自由观:一种是自由主义的;另外一种是共和主义的。如果自由主义的自由观可以概括为"无干涉的自由",那么共和主义的自由观可以概括为"无支配的自由"。共和主义的自由观是由三个部分组成的:首先,它批评了自由主义的自由观,认为"无干涉的自由"是错误的;其次,它主张"无支配的自由",并且认为干涉与自由的关系是偶然的,而支配与自由的关系是必然的;最后,这种共和主义的自由观在个人层面提倡自治和公民美德,在国家层面主张民主和人民主权。我们对这些观点进行了分析和批评,并且揭示了共和主义自由观的基本问题。

There are two main conceptions of freedom in contemporary western political philosophy,one is liberal and another is republican.If liberal conception of freedom may be called＂freedom as non-interference＂,republican conception of freedom may be called＂freedom as non-domination＂.Republican conception of freedom is composed of three parts：First,republicanism criticizes liberal conception of freedom,and holds that ＂freedom as non-interference＂is wrong;secondly,it advocates＂freedom as non-domination＂,and holds that the relation of interference to freedom is occasional,while the relation of domination to freedom is necessary;thirdly,it promotes the self-governance and virtues of citizens in personality,and advocates democracy and popular sovereignty in state.We gave some analyses and critiques of republicanism,and try to reveal the main problems of this conception of freedom.
