初看这个标题,有的人以为,我在跟党的民主集中制之要义——少数服从多数唱反调。否也。这里提出的,多数服从少数,适应于科学研究的范围,且不是我的首提,而是著名科学家、诺贝尔物理奖获得丁肇中教授近日提出的观点。 丁教授说:“自然科学的研究有着自身的规律。它的进展不是靠投票来决定的,常常是多数服从少数,而不是少数服从多数。” 由此,我想到了毛泽东同志在《关于正确处理人民内部矛盾的问题》一文中的一段话:“历史上新的正确的东西,在开始的时候常常得不到多数人的承认,只能在斗争中曲折地发展。正确的东西,好的东西,人们一开始常常不承认它们是香花,反而把它们看作毒草。哥白尼关于太阳系的学说,达尔文的进化文化,都曾经被看作是错误的东西,都曾经经历艰苦的斗争”这种“艰苦”的程度可从哥氏的遭遇中得以窥见。哥氏《天体运行论》的面世,是“来向自然方面的教会权威挑战”“从此自然科学便开始从神学中解放出来”“科学的发展从此便大踏步地前进”(恩格斯《自然辩证法》)。但这部刚出版的不朽著作送到哥氏手边时,他已在久病的卧榻上奄奄一息,他抚摸着这本书与世长辞。中国的马寅初先生涉及计划生育的人口论,开始时也得不到“多数人的承认”,并遭到批判,好在他想得开——历史会作出结论,他 At first glance, there are people who think that I am talking about the essence of the democratic centralism of the party - a minority obeys majority opposition. No too. It is proposed here that most obey the minority to adapt to the scope of scientific research, and not my first mention, but the famous scientist, won the Nobel Prize for Physics Professor Ding Zhaozhong recently put forward the point of view. Professor Ding said: “The study of natural science has its own laws, and its progress is not determined by voting, but it is often the majority that obeys minorities rather than the minority to obey the majority.” Thus, I came up with Comrade Mao Tse-tung’s speech on “ A question in his article entitled ”Problems of Contradictions among the People“: ”New and correct things in history are often not recognized by the majority at the outset and can only be developed in a twisting manner in the struggle.“ What is right, what is good , People often do not recognize them as fragrant flowers at first, but instead regard them as poisonous grass. Copernicus’s doctrine about the solar system and Darwin’s evolutionary culture have all been regarded as erroneous things and have experienced hard struggle The extent of ”hardship“ can be glimpsed from Corporal’s encounter. The advent of the ”theory of celestial bodies“ by Corusco was ”to challenge the authority of the church in nature“ ”since then the natural science began to be liberated from theology.“ The development of science has since made great strides (Engels Dialectics of Nature) . But when this soon-to-be-published monumental work was sent to Corinth, he was on the couch on a chronic illness, stroking the book and living his life. China’s Mr. Ma Yinchu’s population theory concerning family planning did not get ”the recognition of the majority" at the outset and was criticized, just as he wanted to - the history would conclude that he
