摘要:

M.韦伯自20世纪80年代被推介到中国以来,因其思想的复杂性及其同中国现代化需要的契合,一直对中国的学术思想发生着强烈而持久的影响。但是,M.韦伯的思想对中国而言并非无可挑剔。本文选取新儒家代表人物之一的牟宗三关于中西文化的论述同M.韦伯的中西文化观念进行比较研究,明晰了中国儒家思想与西方理论理性之间的互补关系。在此基础上,本文从中西文化的内在特点以及中西交流的历史经验出发,批判了M.韦伯思想中的西方中心论内核,并以之为比照,昭示了中国文化的包容性。

Abstract:

Abstract: Since his introduction to China in the 1980s, Max Weber has been one of the most influencing Western sociologists in the Chinese academia for the good match of his complex ideas to the needs of the modernization there. Even so, his ideas are not free of challenges in the Chinese context. In this essay, the author compared Max Weber with Mu Zongsan, a representative of Neo-Confucianism, in their conceptions relative to the Western or Chinese culture, and clarified the complementary relationship between Confucianism and Western theoretical reason. Considering the features native to the Chinese or Western culture, the author criticized Max Weber’s Eurocentrim, which was contrasted to the inclusiveness of the Chinese culture.

Key words: Max Weber, theoretical reason, moral reason, Eurocentrism
