大一统与辨正统:历史政治学视域下的中国传统政治合法性论述

Grand Unification and Dialectical Unification:Discussing the Legitimacy of Chinese Traditional Politics from the Perspective of Historical Politics

大一统与辨正统是中国传统政治合法性论述的主要内容,对大一统与辨正统论述展开历史政治学分析是深入认识传统政治合法性论述的重要方面。大一统主题之下的合法性论述反映了不同历史时期思想表达与制度设计的内在联系,而以辨正统为主题的合法性论述则在更具技术性与目的性的向度上进一步体现传统政治体系下文化资源与政治实践的相互影响。大一统与辨正统合法性论述在政治权力与文化环境的张力中汲取演进动力,彰显出政治主体在复杂情况下长期面临的深刻历史焦虑。

The grand unification and the dialectical unification had been the main content of the traditional legitimacy discourse on Chinese politics. The historical political analysis of the grand unification and the dialectical unification is an important aspect for deepening the understanding of the traditional political legitimacy discourse. The legitimacy discourse under the theme of grand unification reflects the internal connection between ideological expression and institutional design in different historical periods, while the legitimacy discourse under the theme of dialectical unification reflects mutual influence between cultural resources and political practice in the traditional political system along the more technical and purposeful spectrum. The discourse on the legitimacy of grand unification and dialectical unification draws its evolutionary momentum from the tension between political power and cultural environment, and demonstrates the long-term and profound historical anxiety faced by political subjects under complex circumstances.
