保守主义和自由主义是二十世纪中国两股主要思潮。保守主义以当代新儒家为代表,然当代新儒家并不反对科学、民主,相反却致力于开出“新外王”。在此分为两个部分:第一部分为儒家式“自由”的疏理,主要从天道、道德、人道的角度进行;第二部分为对此种儒家式的“自由”之反思,即论其缺处。 Conservatism and liberalism are two major trends of thought in China in the twentieth century. Conservatism is represented by contemporary Neo-Confucianism. However, contemporary Neo-Confucianism does not oppose science or democracy, but instead devotes itself to opening up a “new foreign king.” This part is divided into two parts: The first part is the Confucian style of “freedom”, mainly from the perspective of nature, morality and humanity; the second part is the reflection of this Confucian “freedom” , That is, its shortcomings.
