On the Construction of Confucian Social Theory—Dual Generation and Its Propositions

儒家的人伦思想在中国近现代学术史上已逐步走入了社会科学范畴。其中“关系本位”成为社会学家研究的核心。然而，对于“关系”的理论建立是否需要借助西方社会理论或放入本体论与认识论去讨论，关系到该理论建构的方向选择。有研究表明，以天人合一为框架的中国文化偏重于关联宇宙论，即以阴阳关系构成来认识世界。本文就此提出，儒家的社会理论是由“对偶生成”为起点建立的一种具有价值导向性的关系运作理论。

Confucian ethics has gradually entered social sciences in the history of modern Chinese academic history. Among them, the “guanxi standard” has become the core of sociological research. However, whether the theory of guanxi can only be established with the help of Western social theory, ontology and epistemology concerns the choice of direction for theoretical construction. Studies have shown that Chinese culture, based on the unity of man and nature, focuses on correlative cosmology. That is, the world is formed by the relationship between yin and yang. This article proposes that Confucian social theory is a value-oriented relational operation theory. It takes “dual generation” as the starting point and a series of propositions can be derived from this.
