孟子与朱熹仁政说之比较

Comparison between Mencius's and Zhuxi's Theories of Benevolent

仁政学说是孟子、朱熹政治思想的核心。面对各自生活时代的迫切要求,两人在仁政的理想目标模式、以民为本理念的贯通等方面做出了相近的阐述,表现了共通的思想旨趣。但是在仁政说的理论依据以及具体实施手段上又存在着差异。比较二者的异同,人们可以对仁政模式多些理解,并赋予它以现时代的意义。

The theory of benevolent government is the core of both Mencius's and Zhuxi's political thoughts. Their elaborations about benevolent government theory, though faced with the urgent needs of different periods, share the similar thoughts in the aspects of ideal objective patterns, the notions of regarding the benefits of common people as essential. However, it is widely agreed that considerable differences exists in their theoretical resources, as well as specific implementing measures. This comparison on these two theories enhances the readers' further understanding of benevolent government patterns and adds more epochal meanings to it.
