民族—国家建构的中国逻辑

Chinese Logic of Nation-state Building

民族—国家建构是一个相当重要且又较为复杂的现代化话题,它是民族建构与国家建构的双重进程,具体体现为作为共同体认同层面的民族,以及作为对内对外自主性层面的国家主权和作为国家主权合法性层面的人民主权等密切关联的三重基本建构实践。相较于作为民族—国家发祥地的西方,作为外生性民族—国家建构的中国,在民族—国家的上述三重基本建构实践上,展现出的是“民族建国”的民族认同建构、“政党领导”的国家主权建构以及“治理民主”的人民主权建构等独特历史逻辑。

Nation-state building is a very important and complex issue of modernization. It is a dual process of nation building and state building,which is embodied in the three basic construction practices closely related to nation as the level of community identity,national sovereignty as the level of internal and external autonomy,and people’s sovereignty as the level of legitimacy of national sovereignty. Compared with the west,the birthplace of the nation-state,and China,as an exogenous nation-state construction,in the above three basic construction practices of the nation-state,shows the unique historical logic of national identity construction of"nation building",national sovereignty construction of"party leadership"and people’s sovereignty construction of"governance democracy".
