剩遗物与中国传统文化精神

借鉴帕累托的剩遗物思路,以神性剩遗物为线索,探寻中国传统文化中的相关倾向,是本文的核心所在。传统的儒道文化虽有其天道论的遗绪,但却不具有神性剩遗的意味,佛教文化本身以及中国化佛教的代表——禅宗,对神性剩遗物持否定的态度,宋明理学则在此基础上,试图实现其剩遗即非剩遗的创造性发展,也与神性剩遗物的性格不符。从这一视角出发,可以发现中国传统文化在现代化的进程中,其主体精神与资本主义精神之间所存在的某些隔阂

Residue and the Spirit of Chinese Traditional Culture

Adopting and revolving around Pareto’s conception of residue,this disquisition explores the trend of Chinese traditional culture as to the holy dimension.Traditional Chinese thoughts such as Confucianism and Taoism do not have the implication in the respect of holy residue though they to some extent expose some remnants of heaven.Both Chinese Buddhism and the Neo-Confucianism in Song and Ming dynasties also hold that the holy residue is unnecessary and must be refuted in any case.Considering Max Weber’s discussion on the spirit of capitalism with the ethics of Protestant,this paper then draws its conclusion that there is a great gulf in spirit between Chinese traditional culture and the spirit of capitalism.
