Issues of the age and possible responses in configuring contemporary Chinese philosophy

摘要

: Efforts are needed in the following three aspects in configuring contemporary Chinese philosophy: providing various value goals for various social groups; re-constructing the value objective for the Chinese; and providing new human nature foundation for contemporary Chinese ethical conduct and legal system. Chinese, Western and Marxist philosophies must break disciplinary segmentation and take the reality of Chinese society and its trends of development as their common platform of thinking. By using their respective intellectual resources, they should endeavor to build up a social philosophy that may satisfy the needs of Chinese people and China's development, and is able to provide guides to their life and practice.
