摘要
本文主要从思想史的角度,选择有代表性的著作,对20世纪七八十年代以来海内外中国史学界出现的一股在近世中国内部寻找现代性的思潮进行批判性的反思,并把这一思潮置于一个更为长远的历史时段内予以考察,重在揭示其中的方法论特征。作者认为,被众多学者发现的所谓中国历史内在自发的"思想现代性",与其反映了历史的真实,不如说是这些学者的思想对中国历史的发明,而这一思想本身在很大程度上又是西方冲击的产物,蕴涵着自身难以克服的逻辑困境。
This paper examines critically the trend of thought that many scholars have been searching for the internal modernity in the Chinese recent history at home and abroad since the 1970s , in order to reveal its methodology characteristics. The author believes that the alleged ＂modernity of thinking an idea＂ in the interior of Chinese history, which has been founded by many scholars, is the invention of these scholars＂ thinking on the history of China, rather than reflects the historical truth, and morever the thinking itself was largely a product of Western influence.
