摘要埃德蒙·柏克常被称为"现代保守主义之父",这种广为流行的观点忽略了柏克早年所受法学教育对其思想的影响。柏克并不像很多教科书中所说,是现代保守主义的始作俑者。如果要给柏克重新定位,更恰当的评价是,他在观察和评论正在发生的政治事件、特别是法国大革命这一旷世巨变时,充分运用了自己在早年所受教育中打下坚实基础的普通法知识,尤其是其中的一种历史观,使保守主义在此后的政治话语中成为了具有高度自觉性的意识形态。从思想史的角度说,这已经是一项了不起的成就。只有基于这一普通法的历史背景,才能对柏克思想在现代保守主义这一复杂谱系中的特点作出明确的判别。 Edmund Burke had been seen as'father of conservatism,'aprevailing opinion that overlooks the influence of law education Burke received during his early years.Burke is not the initiator of modern conservatism as many textbooks say.A more proper evaluation would be that,while observing and commenting on the ongoing political events,especially the upheaval of the French Revolution,Burke fully utilized his sound knowledge on common law received in his early education,especially a kind of historical view in it,making conservatism an ideology with high consciousness in later political discourses.That is a remarkable achievement from the perspective of history of thought.Only the background knowledge of the common-law tradition can constitute a necessary base for understanding the characteristics of Burkes thought in the complex pedig reeofmodernconservatism.
