从“现代化”到“现代性”——理论的嬗变与中国社会转型过程中的问题迁衍

就近现代以来的中国而言,“现代化”是一个贯穿始终的核心主题,而与之既相联系又相区别的“现代性”主题的凸显则要晚得多.在中国语境下,“现代化”理论侧重于探讨中国如何实现从传统社会向现代社会的转型,而近几十年才在中国兴起的“现代性”理论则更多地探讨当前社会主义现代化建设所面临的形势与问题.从“现代化”到“现代性”的理论嬗变,昭示出中国社会转型过程中问题的迁衍.应当及时厘清从这一理论嬗变中折射出来的问题迁衍,以便为社会主义现代化建设提供更好的理论指导.

From "Modernization" to "Modernity": Theoretical Transmutation and Transition of Social Problems in the Process of Chinese Social Transformation

Since modern China,"modernization" is a core theme,but "modernity" which is different from and related to "modernization" is quite late.In the context of modern China,the theory of "modernization" stresses on investigating how to realize Chinese social transformation from traditional society to modern society,but the theory of "modernity" stresses on investigating the situations and problems that we are facing at present in the construction of socialist modernization.The theoretical transmutation from "modernization" to "modernity" shows the transition of social problems in the process of Chinese social transformation.The transition of social problems seen from the theoretical transmutation from "modernization" to "modernity" should be clarified so as to provide a better theoretical guidance for the construction of socialist modernization.
