20世纪之交关于如何走出民族困境的最强音,是效仿西方发展而实现国家工业化,在学术界也引起阵阵理论研究的热潮。早期现代新儒家辩证分析科学技术与社会发展的关系,明确强调中国所追求的西化发展,不应该是简单嫁接西方工业化之路。因此,他们顺应西化发展主张却又另辟新途,基于重释儒家文化而再显其治理世界的优势,以求规避或制衡因发挥科学技术创造世界所带来的负面影响。 At the turn of the 20th century, the strongest voice on how to get out of the predicament of the nation is to follow the development of the West and realize the industrialization of the country. It has also caused a wave of bursts of theoretical studies in academia. The early modern Neo-Confucian dialectically analyzed the relationship between science and technology and social development, and clearly emphasized that the development of Westernization pursued by China should not simply be a way of grafting western industrialization. Therefore, they conform to the Westernization advocacy but have a new way to redefine Confucian culture to re-show their advantages in governing the world so as to sidestep or balance the negative impact of creating science and technology to create a world.
