儒家道统的重建:可能抑或文化乡愁——《现代新儒学与中国现代化》述评及思考

Reconstruction of Confucian Orthodoxy:Possibility or Cultural Nostalgia:Review of Modern Neo-Confucianism and Chinese Modernization

方克立在《现代新儒学与中国现代化》中,将中国文化与儒家伦理置于现代化的进程中考察,指出就现代新儒家的一般观点而言,继承儒学的核心在于道统的传续和发扬。在近代以来儒学处境艰难的大背景下,在现代化浪潮席卷全球的时代环境下,对道统观念的重新省思具有重大现实意义。但我们不应止步于此,而是要在“新道统”“中华道统”的探讨中不断求索,使真正意义上的突破性进展成为可能。舍狭义的“道统”与“政统”,取以“学统”为载体的广义“中华道统”,将儒学的价值安顿于现世生活、产生切实影响,庶几可以消解类似于文化乡愁的困顿和疑虑。

In Modern Neo-Confucianism and Chinese Modernization,Mr.Fang Keli put Chinese culture and Confucian ethics into the process of modernisation and pointed out that the core of inheriting Confucianism lies in the continuation and development of orthodoxy in the general view of modern Neo-Confucianism.In the context of the difficult situation of Confucianism since modern times,and in the era of the tide of modernisation sweeping the world,it is of great practical significance to rethink the concept of orthodoxy.However,we should not stop here,but should continue to explore the new orthodoxy and Chinese orthodoxy in order to make breakthroughs in the real sense possible.By abandoning the narrow sense of orthodoxy and political orthodoxy and taking the broad sense of Chinese orthodoxy with academic orthodoxy as the carrier,the value of Confucianism can be settled in the real life and have a practical impact.The common people can dispel the difficulties and doubts like cultural nostalgia.
