中国式现代国家的形态特征及其理论意涵

The Chinese Modern State: Configurational Characteristics and Theoretical Implications

以历史政治学方法研究中国式现代国家的形成过程可以发现其两大形态特征:首先,中国式现代国家是在不平等的世界体系内通过反抗性革命建立起来的,在价值、形态、制度、机制等各方面截然不同于作为压迫、支配、垄断主体的西方式现代国家;其次,中国式现代国家有十分浓厚的传统性,与中国传统国家之间存在着明显的历史连续性。基于这两大形态特征,可以提出超越西方既有理论、发展新的现代化和现代国家理论之若干基础性命题。

Two configurational characteristics arise when studying the development of the Chinese modern state through the historical politics method.Firstly,the Chinese modern state is completely different from the Western modern state in terms of value,form,system,mechanism,etc.Since the former is established through the rebellious revolution in the unequal world-system while the later is the subject of oppression,dominant and monopoly.Secondly,with the unique traditional character,the Chinese modern state shares an obvious historical continuity with the Chinese tradition state.Based on the two configurational characteristics,several fundamental propositions can be put forward,which can transcend the existing western theories,and develop new theories of modernization and modern state.
