摘要

An existential interpretation of student angst in Chinese universities raises issues of autonomy and freedom.

以存在主义解读中国大学生焦虑引发自主性及自由的问题思考。

Page 7: China confronts Kant when students experience the angst of freedom

7

The governance arrangements in China manifest as an existential dissonance for students as they increasingly urged to question.

随着学生开始不断提出质疑,中国的治理工作在他们看来呈现出一种存在性失调

Page 8: China confronts Kant when students experience the angst of freedom

8

Western modernity entails individual moral autonomy and thus a concept of freedom.

Kant’s theory of duty-rationality-autonomy-freedom relates the liberty of thought to principled action.

西方现代观蕴含个人道德自律,也就是自由的一个概念。康德的责任 - 理性 - 自主 - 自由理论与法则性行为思想自由是相关联的。

Kantian ideals permeate western business and university practice.

康德的理想渗透在西方商业及大学教育实践中。

Page 10: China confronts Kant when students experience the angst of freedom

China needs managers who are insightful, creative, innovative, progressive.

Such people are independent minded, rational, and they act on their own conclusions.

Such people are Kant’s autonomous persons.

中国希望管理者具备洞察力、创造力、创新性、先进性、热忱心等素质,而这些素质只会出现在那些理性做事、独立思考、并按照他们的想法工作的管理者身上。这些人就是康德所说的具有自主性的人。

Page 11: China confronts Kant when students experience the angst of freedom

11

Whilst autonomous persons may produce new ideas, products and services, they are unlikely to accept bridles upon information, restrictions upon the expression of ideas, and restrictions on the freedom of others.

他们能产生新想法、新产品和新服务,但他们不太愿意受到信息的控制,想法表达的限制及对他人自由的约束。

Page 12: China confronts Kant when students experience the angst of freedom

12

Such bridles limit the autonomy of all persons in ways they find unacceptable. 这些束缚以人们无法接受的方式限制人们的自主性。

Chinese students increasingly confront this conflicted political environment in their everyday lives. 中国学生在生活中日益面临这种矛盾的政治环境。

Education reforms require students to think, analyse and argue. 教育改革要求学生要学会思考、分析和争论。

Page 13: China confronts Kant when students experience the angst of freedom

13

Freedom, as construed by Kant as an “inner” construct, is an outcome of this deliberation (thinking).

However, when students exercise freedom in significant matters they may come to experience the angst of freedom.

自由,在康德的解读下是一种“内在”构想,是这种道德自律思想的结果。然而,当学生在重要问题上运用这种自由时,他们却会经受自由的焦虑。

The Enlightenment 启蒙运动

1.In the history of the west, there was a major change in thinking in the 18th century

在西方历史上, 18 世纪有一个重大的思想转变

2.The new period is sometimes called the Enlightenment or the Age of Reason

这个新的时期有时被称为启蒙运动或理性时代

Page 15: China confronts Kant when students experience the angst of freedom

The Enlightenment 启蒙运动

3.The new ideas (vision) which appeared then remain fundamental to the western way of thinking today

那时出现的新思想(看法)至今仍是西方思维方式的基础

4.These ideas affect all aspects of life, including family life, religion, business, democracy and politics 这些思想影响着生活的方方面面,包括家庭生活,宗教,商业,民主和政治
