近现代许多西方学者特别重视理性与宽容的关系,认为宽容从理性而来,人们正是基于理性才会宽容,甚至将宽容等同于理性。然而,这一观点存在严重缺陷,本文将基于霍布斯的学说对理性与宽容的关系进行反思,认为二者之间并不存在这种必然的对应关系;相反,理性在宽容问题上甚至面临困境:理性并非宽容的充分基础,宽容问题并不能归结为理性问题。 Many western scholars in modem times pay special attention to the relationship between reason and tolerance. They think that tolerance comes from rationality, people just based on reason will be tolerant, and even tolerance equals reason. However, there is a serious flaw in this view. This article will reflect on the relationship between reason and tolerance based on Hobbes’s doctrine and think that there is no such necessary correspondence between the two. On the contrary, reason faces even the problem of tolerance Predicament: Reason is not a sufficient basis for tolerance, and tolerance can not be attributed to a rational issue.
