试论系统哲学与结构主义的异同

在世界哲学史中,系统哲学与结构主义关系十分密切。系统哲学就是研究系统复杂性中的哲学问题,就是研究系统的普遍本质和一般发展规律。结构主义的中心概念是结构,它强调结构的流动性。结构主义也使用了系统哲学的一些概念与方法。其强调结构的动态性与相对性,这与系统哲学强调系统的开放性、相对性有共同之点。结构主义与系统哲学都是“反事件”的,它们本身是一种抽象形态的。结构主义主要强调一种方法论,重点在于树立结构的观念,把一切研究导向结构主义。系统哲学是一种理论体系,重点是要树立一种新的世界观。双方研究的目的不同,讨论的侧重点不同,理论的抽象力度也不同。

On Differences and Similarities between Systemic Philosophy and Structuralist Philosophy

Systemic philosophy and structuralism are closely related in the world history of philosophy.Systemic philosophy studies the philosophical issues in the complexity of the system,focusing on the common characters and general principles of the system.The central idea of structuralism is the structure.It emphasizes mobility of the system.Structuralism employs some concepts and methods of systemic philosophy but stresses the dynamics and relativity of structure,which is similar to the ideas of openness and relativity in systemic philosophy.Structuralism uses one methodology,focusing on establishing the idea of a structure,and attempts to direct all studies to structuralism.Systemic philosophy,on the other hand,is a set of theories,focusing on establishing a new view of the world.These two differ in objectives of study,focuses of discussion,and strength of theoretical abstraction as well.
