人类情怀,中国道路:费孝通的“中国研究”

Universal Value,Chinese Road:“China Studies”in Fei Xiaotong's Mind

在真切的价值关怀同社会现实的紧张中产生的问题意识,是一个学者的研究成果之价值的关键所在,也是使费孝通区别于其他学者的关键所在。对于“富民”之路的探寻构成了费孝通问题意识在特定语境下可以言表、方便言表的凸显点,而这个集中凸显点的背景则是一个更大、更为一般和宏阔的问题关怀。这个根本性的问题关怀就是:如何以中国的方式走向人类现代文明,并进一步推动这个文明向更美好的方向发展。在费孝通的心中,一方面是人类情怀,另一方面是中国道路。

The problem consciousness generated in the tension between genuine value concern and social reality is the key to the value of a scholar's research results and the key to distinguishing him from his peers.The exploration of the road of“enriching the people”constitutes the outstanding feature of Fei Xiaotong's academic research:his problem consciousness can be expressed conveniently in a certain specific context.Behind this distinctive feature lies a larger,more general and broader fundamental concern:how to approach the modern human civilization in the Chinese way,and further promote the development of this civilization towards a better direction?In Fei Xiaotong's heart,on the one hand is the universal value of human beings,on the other hand is the Chinese road.
