吉登斯社会历史观研究--一种批判性的解析

吉登斯结构化理论不仅是一种社会学理论,而且是一种历史观。吉登斯从人类实践活动的理论向度出发,对于社会的构成、社会的类型和社会的变迁做出了新的分析和说明,从而实现了当代西方社会历史观的重建。虽然吉登斯历史观受马克思唯物史观的巨大影响,批判吸取了当代社会科学发展的诸多理论成果,并且做出了许多富于启发性和独创性的见解,但是,吉登斯误解了马克思唯物史观的理论体系,否认了人类社会发展的必然性和规律性,其历史观本质上是一种唯心史观。

A Study on Anthony Giddens'Views of Social History

Anthony Giddens' structuration theory not only is a kind of sociology theory, also certain social history views. From human praxis, Giddens makes new analysis and explanation on social structure, social types and social variance; realize reconstruction on contemporary western social history views. Although Giddens receives great influence of Karl Marx's Historical Materialism, extracts some theoretical fruits from contemporary social science development, and makes some enlightened and original opinions, Giddens mistakes Karl Marx's Historical Materialism, deny human social development's inevitability and law, thus its theory is in essence a kind of historical mentalism.
