The New Development of Human Rights “Jurisprudence” in Completing the Building a Moderately Prosperous Society in All Respects

Bringing the building a moderately prosperous society in all respects to successful completion is a great achievement in China’s modernization and contributes to the development of human rights in China and the world alike.The practice of building a moderately prosperous society in all respects has added new connotations to human rights theories,developing and outgrowing the traditional jurisprudence of human rights.This is reflected in the following aspects:the injection of the overall and equal human development has expanded the traditional western values of human rights based on human freedom and dignity;the injection of interpersonal mutual development,win-win cooperation and risk management and control has expanded the traditional western presupposition of social relations based on the social contract and civil society,and has thus expanded the social foundation of interpersonal cooperation,enriching the social concept of human rights.Guided by the concept of building a community with a shared future for human beings,the building a moderately prosperous society in all respects,enriching the human rights worldviews,has changed the worldviews of racism and zero-sum game among western developed countries and generated the new connotation that mankind should share the development opportunities and achievements.This has constituted a profound jurisprudence of human rights in China and formed an important discourse system in international human rights dialogue.

人类文明形态演进的生命辩证法

马克思的世界观实现了相对于旧哲学世界观的革命性变革,这就是把价值论的维度引入世界观,从而不仅回答了“世界是什么”的本体论问题,而且回答了“世界向何处去”的价值论问题。按照马克思的世界观,人类文明形态的演进本质上是人类这一物种寻求永生的过程。于是,世界历史进程便表现为人类文明形态不断演进的过程。文明形态的演进遵循辩证法原理,而人类通过文明形态的演进,展现了人类独特的生命活动形式,即生命辩证法。共产主义社会文明形态实现了人类文明中“自然法则”和“理性法则”的辩证统一,使人类这一物种的永久生存成为可能。

共产主义:人性可能的终极承诺

共产主义是人与社会关系价值的终极承诺。人与他所造就的社会关系是一致的,“总和的社会关系”就是自由发展的人性自我显现。人与社会关系的自我否定过程中,展开其无限可能性,它既是“人类社会”的实现,也是人的全面发展的实现。“个人自由发展”必然是“一切人自由发展”前提,否则,就是“单个人”和片面关系的异化。所以“自由人联合体”表明了至善价值就是人性的自我显现,也是真理的自我显现,更是正义社会关系的自我显现。

经济社会与生态用水平衡计算规则与方法

现代“加速社会”人与自然“新异化”的逻辑、症候与矫治路径

资本逻辑驱动的现代社会是不断加速的社会,但自然有其内在的运行规律和加速极限,本身并不追求速度和效率,结果导致了人与自然的“新异化”。现代“加速社会”的“新异化”对人的内在自然和外在自然造成了双重危害,生理失调、精神焦虑、健康危机和生态危机成了资本逻辑驱动的现代“加速社会”的显著症候。矫治资本逻辑驱动的现代“加速社会”引致的人与自然“新异化”,需要走人与自然和谐共生的中国式现代化道路。中国式现代化是以人本逻辑取代资本逻辑,以人与自然的和谐共生为特征和目标的现代化。推动中国式现代化,实现人与自然和谐共生,需要在尊重和顺应自然规律的基础上,塑造符合自然规律的社会发展速度观,驾奴和引导资本,合理发挥资本的功能,推动生态化和人性化技术的创新和应用,构建符合自然规律的生产和生活方式。
