我的报告主要是围绕主标题——“理性选择与道德判断”展开的。显然 ,在西方思想传统里,这是两种完全不同的思路。它们在 1990 年代以前也确实是相互隔离的两个研究领域 ——关于“理性选 择”的讨论基本上是在第一种文化里进行的, 关于“道德判断”的讨论则主要在第二种文化里进行。我今天的报告, 结论其实只是一句话 ,说出来稍微长些 :一方面是情境的理性和不断在情境里作着判断的道德自我 ;另一方面,是在许多自我的符号交往中不断重塑自身的自我。这两个方面是对立统一的,构成我们每一个自我的生活体验与知识过程。你如果能理解这句话所陈述的事实 ,你就明白,这其 实是“第三种文化”的视角 。

The increasing body of literature in evolutionary psychology and neuroscience in the last ten years supports the following propositions :(1)There are much closer connections between rational choice and moral judgement than traditionally thought ;(2)Such connections are formed during the long evolution of human society ;(3)For human species the brain structure and the social structure are coevolutionary ;(4)The psycho-physiological foundation of moral judgement are “theory of mind” and social cognition ;(5)The psycho-physiological foundation of rational choice are episodic and semantic memory . These propositions have been explained in the so-called the “third culture” rhetoric which differs from that of scientific(the first)culture and the humanity(the second)culture.The third culture is itself an interdisciplinary rhetoric and dialogue of logos.
