西方理性主义文化的内在张力析

On the Inner Tension of Western Rationalist Culture

自文艺复兴以来,西方资本主义社会逐渐形成了理性主义文化模式,成为主导社会运行的内在机理和图式,并形成西方人的理性存在方式。但这种文化具有内在的文化张力,造成理性的人难以逾越的两难生存境遇,既促进人的主体性的觉醒又造成人的全面异化。其原因是古希腊文化、基督教文化和近代理性主义文化所孕育和发展的“逻各斯”精神和“努斯”精神的二元对立。在当前中国文化发展中,要反思批判当代西方理性主义文化,消解西方主义文化霸权,建构社会主义理性主义文化,积极向世界建构中国文化形象,助力中华文化走向复兴。

Since the ancient Greek civilization,Western capitalist society has gradually formed the rationalist cultural model,becomes the internal mechanism and schema of leading social operation,and forms the rational existence mode of Westerners.However,this kind of culture has inherent cultural tension,bringing rational people insurmountable dilemma,which promotes the awakening of human subjectivity and causes the overall alienation of human beings.The reason lies in the dualistic opposition between“Logos”and“Nous”spirit,which was bred and developed by Western ancient Greek culture,Christian culture and modern rationalist culture.In the current development of Chinese culture,it is essential to reflect on and criticize contemporary Western rationalist culture,to eliminate the cultural hegemony of the West,to construct the rationalist culture of socialist market economy,to show the image of Chinese culture to the world actively,and to help the historical revival of Chinese culture.
