摘要:

“重农运动”作为美国新批评的文化哲学基础,重视南方传统农业文明,抵制资本主义工业化以解决“一战”后美国面临的危机,带来了美国思想界的巨变,引发了南方文艺复兴。杜威的实用主义思想则主张通过工业社会承载的集体行动改造社会。为了反对杜威的实用主义思想,重农派对杜威的哲学思想及其所代表的“进步哲学”进行批评。通过对这两种思想之间冲突的分析可以发现,表面上二者的分歧是保守与进步的矛盾,或双方各自代表的农业文明与工业文明之间的矛盾;实际上,双方的冲突焦点是这两种文明所蕴含的生态思想与实用理性之间的矛盾。

关键词: 重农运动, 生态思想, 实用理性, 约翰·杜威

Abstract:

As the cultural and philosophical bedrock of the New Critics of the United States, the “Agrarian Movement” emphasized traditional southern agricultural civilization. It stood as a bulwark against the encroachment of capitalist industrialization, proposing it as an antidote to the post-war crisis. This stance catalyzed a significant transformation within the American intellectual community and sparked the Southern Renaissance. Dewey’s pragmatic thought, in contrast, championed the transformation of the society through a collectivist behavior fostered by industrial society. In order to counter Dewey’s pragmatic thought, the Agrarians launched a critique of both his philosophical thought and the progressive philosophy he epitomized. Upon examining the clash between these two ideologies, it might initially appear that the disagreement lies in the tension between conservatism and progressivism, or between the agricultural civilization and industrial civilization. While in fact, the conflict is rooted in the dichotomy between ecological thought and pragmatic rationalism inherent within these two different civilizations.

Key words: Agrarian, ecological thought, pragmatic rationalism, John Dewey
