作为中国近代史上的一种重要思潮,自由主义经历了发生、发展、衰弱的复杂历程,在中国近代思想史上亦发挥过重要作用,产生过多种影响。如何认识和评价中国近代史上的自由主义,不仅是中国近代思想史研究的重要内容,也关乎时代对自由主义的价值判断。近年来,学术界对自由主义思潮的研究非常活跃,成果不少,但也表现出某种非历史主义的倾向,这不仅造成了一些学术混乱,也容易误导广大读者,产生不好的社会影响。因而从历史事实出发,对中国近代自由主义进行多视角、多维度的实事求是的研究是非常必要的。这种研究的目的,就是要对近代中国的自由主义思潮正本清源,还其本来的历史面目。为此,中国社会科学院中国近代思想研究中心联合聊城大学、聊城市政协于2007年11月在山东聊城举办了“自由主义与近代中国(1840—1949)”学术研讨会。这里选发四篇会议论文,以飨读者。我们希望借此进一步推动学术界对中国近代自由主义的深入研究。
As an important trend of thought in modern Chinese history, liberalism has undergone complicated course of occurrence, development and weakness. It also played an important role in the history of modern Chinese thought and had various influences. How to understand and evaluate the liberalism in modern Chinese history is not only an important part of the research on the history of Chinese modern thought, but also relates to the value judgment of the times on liberalism. In recent years, the academic circles have been very active in the study of liberalism and have achieved many successes. However, they have also shown some non-historicist tendencies. This not only creates some academic confusion but also misleads readers and leads to bad social effects . Therefore, proceeding from historical facts, it is necessary to conduct multi-perspective and multi-dimensional realistic studies of modern Chinese liberalism. The purpose of this kind of research is to purify the original ideas of liberalism in modern China and its original historical features. To this end, the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences Research Center for Modern Thought jointly Liaocheng University, Liaocheng CPPCC National Committee held in November 2007 in Liaocheng, Shandong Province “Liberalism and Modern China (1840-1949)” seminar. Four conference papers are selected here to readers. We hope to further promote academic research on the modern liberalism in China.
