中国哲学知识论的缺失与形式化问题

The Deficiency of Epistemology in Chinese Philosophy and Formalization

在中国哲学知识论的缺失问题中,最为核心的是形式化的缺失问题。在西方哲学知识论中,形式化贯穿始终,它是哲学研究中具有本源性的思考方式,是贯穿于西方哲学具有初始性的重大命题。它将哲学界定为对知识确定性的追求,使“哲学为科学奠基”,并发展到追求“作为严格科学的哲学”。当下,仍然可以通过形式化的建构克服语言之歧义,为思维精确地把握自然界以及社会提供条件。可以说,今天现代西方哲学的诸多哲学形态基本上都或多或少贯穿了形式化的哲学方式。中国哲学存在着知识论的缺失问题,更谈不上形式化的思维方式,引进西方哲学的形式化,对于我们思维方式的进步具有重要的意义。

In the deficiency of epistemology in Chinese philosophy,the core problem is the deficiency of formalization.In the epistemology of Western philosophy,formalization runs through all the time.It is the original thinking way in the study of philosophy,and it runs through the major proposition of Western philosophy with the original nature.It defines the philosophy as the pursuit of knowledge certainty,makes“philosophy as the foundation of science”,and develops to the pursuit of“philosophy as a strict science”.Today,we still need overcome the ambiguity of language through the construction of formalization,and provide conditions for thinking to grasp the nature and society accurately.Today,in modern Western philosophy,it can be said that many philosophical forms basically more or less use the philosophical way of formalization.There is a deficiency of epistemology in Chinese philosophy,not to mention formalized mode of thinking.To introduce the formalization in Western philosophy to China is a great significance to the progress of our mode of thinking.
