进入新世纪,知识界对中国现实的看法流派分立,诸说不一。然而,就我见到的知识分子中,不论是哪一派,读了曹锦清所著的《黄河边的中国》的,却都予以好评。他们未必都赞成作者的理论见解,而是为书中展示的鲜活材料所感染,为作者所选择的知识分子介入社会现实的方式所感染。 Entering the new century, the intelligentsia’s view of the reality of China is divided into different schools and different opinions. However, among the intellectuals I have seen, no matter what school they read, Cao Jinqing’s “China by the Yellow River” was read but all were praised. They are not always in favor of the author’s theoretical opinions, but rather are infected with the fresh materials presented in the book, inflicting on the way in which the intellectuals of the authors choose to intervene in social reality.
