超越“实体构成论”与“关系生成论”——关于“生命共同体”的生态本体论研究

Transcending“Substantialist”and“Relationalist”Perspectives:An Ecological Ontological Study on the“Community of Life”

以往关于生态本体论的研究,存在着两种截然不同并相互对立的研究范式:一是可谓“实体构成论”的研究范式;二是可谓“关系生成论”的研究范式。前者聚焦“实体”及其“构成”,而严重忽视“关系”及其“生成”;后者则聚焦“关系”及其“生成”,而大大消解“实体”及其“构成”。“生命共同体”的研究范式将不仅最大限度地吸取和利用二者的合理之处,从而达到创造性的综合,而且将最大限度地摆脱和纠正二者的困境和偏颇,从而实现创新性的超越。

Previous studies in ecological ontology have presented two distinct and mutually opposing research paradigms:one can be termed the“substantialist”perspective,and the other the“relationalist”perspective.The former focuses on the“entities”and their“constitution”,while significantly overlooking the“relations”and their“generation”;the latter,conversely,emphasizes“relations”and their“generation”,while greatly undermining the importance of“entities”and their“constitution”.The research paradigm of the“community of life”will not only maximize the absorption and utilization of the their rational aspects,thereby achieving a creative synthesis,but also strive to maximize the elimination and rectification of their dilemmas and biases,thus achieving innovative transcendence.
