How China’s Ancient Past Can Shape Its Political Future
Author:Jiang Qing

As China continues to transform itself, many assume that the nation will eventually
move beyond communism and adopt a Western—style democracy. But could China
develop a unique form of government based on its own distinct traditions? Jiang Qing--China's most original, provocative, and controversial Confucian political thinker-says yes. In this book, he sets out a vision for a Confucian constitutional order that offers
a compelling alternative to both the status quo in China and to a Western-style liberal
democracy. A Confucian Constitutional Order is the most detailed and systematic work
on Confucian constitutionalism to date.
Jiang argues against the democratic view that the consent of the people is the main source
of political legitimacy. Instead, he presents a comprehensive way to achieve humane authority
based on three sources of political legitimacy, and he derives and defends a proposal for a
tricameral legislature that would best represent the Confucian political ideal. He also puts forward
proposals for an institution that would curb the power of parliamentarians and for a symbolic
monarch who would embody the historical and transgenerational identity of the state. In the latter
section of the book, four leading liberal and socialist Chinese critics--Joseph Chan, Chenyang Li,
Wang Shaoguang, and Bai Tongdong--critically evaluate Jiang's theories and Jiang gives detailed
responses to their views.
A Confucian Constitutional Order provides a new standard for evaluating political progress in China
and enriches the dialogue of possibilities available to this rapidly evolving nation. This book will
fascinate students and scholars of Chinese politics, and is essential reading for anyone concerned
about China's political future.
【中國仍處在自我轉(zhuǎn)化過程中。很多人認為此國家將最終越過共產(chǎn)主義,采用西式民主制。然而,中國是否有可能在自己特有的傳統(tǒng)之上發(fā)展出一套獨特的政體?中國最具原創(chuàng)力、最富挑戰(zhàn)精神和最有爭議性的儒家政治思想家——蔣慶,答曰“能”。他在此書中規(guī)劃了一套儒教憲政圖景。此一道路選擇,其優(yōu)長可敵現(xiàn)行政體和西式自由民主政體。《儒教憲政秩序》是一部迄今為止最為詳盡而系統(tǒng)的儒教憲政主義作品。
民主主義者認為民意是政治合法性的主要來源。蔣對此不能贊同,和盤托出了一套以政治三重合法性為基礎的王道政治,并由之推演出一套最能體現(xiàn)儒家政治理想的三院制立法機構(gòu),為之辯護。他還主張建立某種機制以制約議員們的權(quán)力,設立象征性的君主以代表國家的歷史和跨時代身份。書的后一部分是四位中國自由主義和社會主義健將即陳祖為、 李晨陽、王紹光和白彤東的批評。他們審視了蔣的理論,蔣也對他們的批評做了詳細的答復。
《儒教憲政秩序》提供了一個評估中國政治進步的新標準,豐富了關于這個急劇變化中的國家的發(fā)展可能性的討論。從事中國政治研究的學者、專家將對此書產(chǎn)生濃厚興趣,對任何關心中國政治前途的人而言,都是至關重要的讀物?!?/p>
書封面所附幾位學者評論:
“At the very moment that China is roiling with pressure for change--ethically, politically, and spiritually--Jiang Qing has unveiled a provocative road map that seeks to reconnect the nations past with its future.
This book opens the window on the struggle for Chinas soul."
--Evan Osnos, China correspondent for the New Yorker
【正當中國在倫理、政治和信仰方面都面臨著激流噴涌的變革之際,蔣慶亮出了一幅挑戰(zhàn)性的路線圖,力圖把國家的過去和未來一體打通。此書開啟了中國心靈的掙扎之窗?!练病?/p>
"Should Confucianism be treated as an official religion guiding the Chinese state? Or should it
serve more as a stimulus for moral cultivation? This volume assembles arguments by one of
the most ardent advocates of a religious Confucian constitutional order, together with a number
of rejoinders that, without fully endorsing Western liberalism, favor a greater balance between
East and West. A fascinating collection for China experts and students of political philosophy."
--Fred Dallmayr, University of Notre Dame
【儒家應該被當成指導國家的官方宗教,還是將其當成道德修養(yǎng)之動力更合適?此書匯集了最熱烈的儒教憲政倡導者之一的論辯和其他幾位對話者的回應。他們贊成東西之間有更大程度的平衡,而不完全認同西方自由主義。這是一部中國政治哲學專家、學者之合集,引人入勝?!ダ椎隆?/p>
"A Confucian Constitutional Order represents the most comprehensive take on this important topic
that I have seen. The official position of the Chinese Communist Party in favor of Confucianism as
the defining element in Chinese socialism gives Qings book a prime relevance to the contemporary
political scene. The stature and qualifications of the author, editors, and contributors are impressive,
and their reflections on Western democracy are significant."
--Wm. Theodore de Bary, Columbia University
【《儒教憲政秩序》一書是我迄今看到的、在此重大問題上做了最豐富的發(fā)掘工作的代表作。中共官方傾向儒學,視其為中式社會主義的決定因素,這使得慶之書與當今政局發(fā)生重大關聯(lián)。此書之作者、編者、參與者之聲望與資歷引人注目,他們對西方民主的反思意義重大?!野偃稹?/p>
"Jiang Qing is a contemporary Chinese political thinker whose voice deserves to be heard. We now
have before us, for the first time in English, a major statement of Confucian constitutionalism by one
of the leading Confucian thinkers working in China today."
--Jiwei Ci, University of Hong Kong
【蔣慶是位當代中國政治思想家,其聲音值得傾聽。現(xiàn)在首次以英文擺在我們面前的便是這本宣示儒教憲政的重要著作。作者是當今中國活動著的主要儒家思想者之一?!狫iwei】
"Jiang Qing is a remarkable intellectual and sociological phenomenon, and he is China's most
visible proponent of Confucian revivalism. His work engages scholars and he is a courageous
and active force for political reform in China. This book will be useful to those who want to learn
more about China's most charismatic advocate for traditional Confucian principles."
--Justin Tiwald, San Francisco State University
【蔣慶是位令人矚目的知識分子和一個社會現(xiàn)象,亦是最著名的倡導儒家復興的人物。其著作令學者們深感興趣。他是一股勇猛精進的中國政改推動力。欲更多地了解今日中國最具卡里斯馬色彩的傳統(tǒng)儒家原則的倡導者,此書將會很有用處?!槭慷 ?/p>
