“在人际关系中创造性转换的自我”何以可能？——评杜维明对儒家“哲学人类学”的“创造性阐释”

On the Possibility of the Creative Transformation of Self in Interpersonal Relationship

摘要: 杜维明以哲学人类学的视角对儒学作出“创造性阐释”，把儒家哲学阐释为一种哲学的人类学。认为儒家的人性自我的实现除了需要内在主体在自我修养中不断深化外，还需要在外在人际关系的层层拓展与交互作用中进行创造性转换。但这种“创造性阐释”方法仅仅是观念的诠释，既不符合儒家思想的本意，也缺乏历史条件的支撑，更不可能在现代社会中实现创造性的转换。

Abstract: DUWeiming providesacreativeinterpretationto Confucianismfromthe perspective ofphilosophic anthropology bycategorizing Confucian philosophy into philosophic anthropology. He thinks the self -realization in Confucianism requires not only self-improvement but also creative transformation in interpersonal communication. However, this "creative transformation" is merely a conceptual interpretation, which is not in accordance with the soul of Confucianism and lacks historical evidence. Therefore, it definitely can not be successfully realized in modern society.
