理解中国现代性的一个恰当的角度就是提出中西问题。以世界历史的眼光看,中西问题是一个文明比较的问题,就是说,其主要课题是理解并评定中华文明与西方文明之间的优劣,以期在世界历史的高度上为人类文明的走向提供指南。现代儒门学者在理解中西问题时也都注意到了基督教之于现代西方文明的重要性,相应地,他们提出对儒教进行改革而为中国的现代化保驾护航,以成就现代中华文明。
An appropriate perspective to understand China’s modernity is to raise the question of China and the West. Viewing from the perspective of world history, the issue of China and the West is a comparative issue of civilization. That is to say, its main task is to understand and assess the pros and cons between the Chinese and Western civilizations and to provide the direction of human civilization at the height of world history guide. Modern Confucian scholars also noticed the importance of Christianity to the modern Western civilization when they understood the Chinese and Western issues. Accordingly, they proposed to reform Confucianism and escort China’s modernization in order to achieve modern Chinese civilization.
