谢林的政治哲学期待——从沃格林的角度看

Schelling’s Expectation of Political Philosophy: A Study from Voegelin’s Perspective

尽管谢林那里缺乏直接的“政治哲学”论述,但在沃格林对时代生存经验的描述中,谢林整个哲学呈现出一种生存-经验性的“政治哲学”诊断维度,从这个维度出发,可以把谢林对近代哲学的批判及其体系建构放在一个更广泛的政治经验历史中来考察。这一考察向我们表明,尽管谢林并不是一个直接意义上的“政治哲学家”,但一种真正意义上的“政治哲学”也能以非政治哲学的方式,从对于时代精神概念的诊断中得到阐述,一种对于政治哲学正面言说的“失语”,或许更多地指向对一种“未来政治”的期待。

Although Schelling does not give a direct discussion of “political philosophy”, but in Voegelin’s description of the existential-experience of the times, Schelling’s whole philosophy presents an existential-experience diagnostic dimension of “political philosophy”. Starting from this dimension, Schelling’s criticism of early modern philosophy and the construction of this system can be investigated in a broader history of political experience. This investigation shows us that although Schelling is not a “political philosopher” in the true sense of the term, but a real “political philosophy” can also be expounded from the diagnosis of the concept of the spirit of the times in the aspect of non-political philosophy. An “aphasia” for the positive speech of political philosophy may more point to the expectation of a “future politics”.
