How China’s Ancient Past Can Shape Its Political Future
Author:Jiang Qing
Edited by Daniel A. Bell and Ruiping Fan

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.
【中国仍处在自我转化过程中。很多人认为此国家将最终越过共产主义,采用西式民主制。然而,中国是否有可能在自己特有的传统之上发展出一套独特的政体?中国最具原创力、最富挑战精神和最有争议性的儒家政治思想家——蒋庆,答曰“能”。他在此书中规划了一套儒教宪政图景。此一道路选择,其优长可敌现行政体和西式自由民主政体。《儒教宪政秩序》是一部迄今为止最为详尽而系统的儒教宪政主义作品。
民主主义者认为民意是政治合法性的主要来源。蒋对此不能赞同,和盘托出了一套以政治三重合法性为基础的王道政治,并由之推演出一套最能体现儒家政治理想的三院制立法机构,为之辩护。他还主张建立某种机制以制约议员们的权力,设立象征性的君主以代表国家的历史和跨时代身份。书的后一部分是四位中国自由主义和社会主义健将即陈祖为、 李晨阳、王绍光和白彤东的批评。他们审视了蒋的理论,蒋也对他们的批评做了详细的答复。
《儒教宪政秩序》提供了一个评估中国政治进步的新标准,丰富了关于这个急剧变化中的国家的发展可能性的讨论。从事中国政治研究的学者、专家将对此书产生浓厚兴趣,对任何关心中国政治前途的人而言,都是至关重要的读物。】
书封面所附几位学者评论:
“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
【正当中国在伦理、政治和信仰方面都面临着激流喷涌的变革之际,蒋庆亮出了一幅挑战性的路线图,力图把国家的过去和未来一体打通。此书开启了中国心灵的挣扎之窗。——伊凡】
"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
【儒家应该被当成指导国家的官方宗教,还是将其当成道德修养之动力更合适?此书汇集了最热烈的儒教宪政倡导者之一的论辩和其他几位对话者的回应。他们赞成东西之间有更大程度的平衡,而不完全认同西方自由主义。这是一部中国政治哲学专家、学者之合集,引人入胜。——弗雷德】
"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
【《儒教宪政秩序》一书是我迄今看到的、在此重大问题上做了最丰富的发掘工作的代表作。中共官方倾向儒学,视其为中式社会主义的决定因素,这使得庆之书与当今政局发生重大关联。此书之作者、编者、参与者之声望与资历引人注目,他们对西方民主的反思意义重大。——狄百瑞】
"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
【蒋庆是位当代中国政治思想家,其声音值得倾听。现在首次以英文摆在我们面前的便是这本宣示儒教宪政的重要著作。作者是当今中国活动着的主要儒家思想者之一。——Jiwei】
"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
【蒋庆是位令人瞩目的知识分子和一个社会现象,亦是最著名的倡导儒家复兴的人物。其著作令学者们深感兴趣。他是一股勇猛精进的中国政改推动力。欲更多地了解今日中国最具卡里斯马色彩的传统儒家原则的倡导者,此书将会很有用处。——查士丁】
