近年来,关于荀子政治思想尤其是君民关系思想的评价,尽管学界已形成了两种相对的观点,一种认为荀子是一个民本主义者,另一种认为荀子是一个君本主义者,但笔者认为,一直以来我们对“民本”与“君本”都存在误读。只有弄清了“民本”、“君本”的真正释义,才能准确回答荀子“君本”抑或“民本”的问题。 In recent years, the evaluation of Xunzi’s political thought, especially the relationship between the people and the people, although the academic circles have formed two relative views, one that Xunzi is a people-based, the other that Xunzi is a monarchist, However, I believe that we have always misunderstood both the “people-based” and “the native”. Only by understanding the true interpretation of “people ”, “Jun Ben ” can we correctly answer the question of Xun Zi “Jun Ben ” or “people ”.
