Encountering China: Michael Sandel and Chinese Philosophy

內容簡介

內容簡介 在西方世界，哈佛大學哲學家麥克．桑德爾是一個非凡的思想家。然而在中國，他是一個萬眾矚目的現象。根據《中國日報》的報導，他受歡迎的程度媲美好萊塢影星，《中國新聞周刊》聲稱他是年度"最具影響力的外國人”。中國人在桑德爾身上找到一個指引，提供他們在國家快速擁抱市場經濟後所產生的道德困境一個方向，桑德爾指南中的共產理念恰巧與中國本身豐富的哲學傳統相呼應。中國人民有一種感覺，當他們向前衝的時候，貪腐與漠視道德的力量同時被釋放。市場經濟提升了數百萬貧民的生活，但是卻無法定義個人與國家的終極目標。在這個脈絡下，桑德爾將道德哲學根植於現實世界且充滿魅力的互動式演講風格，便在努力尋求何謂責任的中國人中找到了聽眾。本書集結了儒家與道家思想的學者專家，一同探索中西交會下所產生的關係與張力，深刻檢視關於個人、正義、群體、性別與公共財等方面的理念。In the West, Harvard philosopher Michael Sandel is a thinker of unusual prominence. In China, he’s a phenomenon, greeted by vast crowds. China Daily reports that he has acquired a popularity “usually reserved for Hollywood movie stars.” China Newsweek declared him the “most influential foreign figure” of the year. In Sandel the Chinese have found a guide through the ethical dilemmas created by the nation’s swift embrace of a market economy―a guide whose communitarian ideas resonate with aspects of China’s own rich and ancient philosophical traditions.Chinese citizens often describe a sense that, in sprinting ahead, they have bounded past whatever barriers once held back the forces of corruption and moral disregard. The market economy has lifted millions from poverty but done little to define ultimate goals for individuals or the nation. Is the market all there is? In this context, Sandel’s charismatic, interactive lecturing style, which roots moral philosophy in real-world scenarios, has found an audience struggling with questions of their responsibility to one another.Encountering China brings together leading experts in Confucian and Daoist thought to explore the connections and tensions revealed in this unlikely episode of Chinese engagement with the West. The result is a profound examination of diverse ideas about the self, justice, community, gender, and public good. With a foreword by Evan Osnos that considers Sandel’s fame and the state of moral dialogue in China, the book will itself be a major contribution to the debates that Sandel sparks in East and West alike.
