以贤能治国,在某种意义上可以视为儒家的政治理念。儒家对贤与能既作了不同定位,又关注其统一。较之政治领域中的体制、程序,贤能更多地与人的内在品格、能力相联系。与此相联系,肯定贤能在政治实践中的作用,对于避免仅仅将政治的运作限定于体制、程序等形式的层面无疑具有积极的意义。当然,贤能作为个体性的品格和能力,其作用本身无法完全与体制、规范、程序等相分离,贤能者本身之进入政治实践的领域以及对其可能产生的消极趋向的限定,也需要体制、程序等层面的担保。由此实践主体层面的贤能与政治体制层面的程序系统并非彼此相斥。 To be wise and able to govern the country can, in a sense, be regarded as Confucian political philosophy. Confucianism has both different positions on the Yin and the can, but also concerned about their unity. Compared with the systems, processes and virtues in the political field, the virtues can be more associated with the inner character and abilities of the people. In connection with this, affirming the role of virtuous men in political practice undoubtedly has positive significance in avoiding the limitation of the political operation to forms such as system and procedure. Of course, the virtuous character as an individual character and ability, the function itself can not be completely separated from the system, the standard, the procedure and so on, the elitist himself enters into the field of political practice as well as the restriction of its possible negative trend, Procedures and other aspects of the guarantee. Thus, the virtues at the practical level and the procedural systems at the political system level are not mutually exclusive.
