孟子“三辨之学”平议

孟子志在救治功利主义横行的整个战国时代，以“人禽之辨”拔本塞源，以“义利之辨”崇本息末，以“王霸之辨”治乱救弊，旨在开显一种不仅可为当世开太平亦可为万世开太平的修身治世之道。这是平议孟子“三辨之学”，澄清后人误解或创造性诠释，避免厚责古人或厚诬古人的重要线索与研究基础。由此出发，可以清晰判断古今学者有关《孟子》“三辨之学”的代表性观点哪些分别与孟子的“本有之意”“当有之意”与“未有之意”相对应，从而有助于在对孟子尽可能平实了解的基础之上，还原《孟子》义理架构的本来面目。 

Plain Discussion of the Three Discrimination of Mencius

As the utilitarianism is rampant in the Warring States Period, Mencius wants to fight against the world and saves the world, fighting with three discrimination as powerful weapons, the Human-Animal Distinction, the Justice-Interest Distinction, and the Kingly Way-Hegemonic Way Distinction, for Creating peace for the world in the period. From this perspective to study the philosophy of Mencius, We can clarify a lot misunderstandings by the scholars of all ages in Chinese history, and avoid overly accusing the ancients. In particular, it can be clearly judged which is the original meaning of Mencius, and which is not, and the meaning that can be inferred from the original meaning of Mencius, so as to restore the true features of Mencius' thought.
