近年,中国飞速崛起,其中的某些方面,让我们想起了自己的历史。中国在过去几十年中所走过的道路,在欧洲则花上了几个世纪的时间。回溯历史,我们将那段时间称为“启蒙时期”。事实上,启蒙并不是在描述可明确划定的某一历史时期,它是一个漫长的认识过程,伴有不断的反复和倒退。由蒙昧走向有序、法治、富足国家的道路并不是现成的。 In recent years, with the rapid rise of China, some aspects of it remind us of our own history. The path China has taken in the last few decades has taken centuries in Europe. Back to history, we call that period “Enlightenment period.” In fact, Enlightenment does not describe a clearly demarcated historical period. It is a long process of cognition accompanied by constant repetition and retrogression. The path from obscuration to order, the rule of law and a prosperous country is not readily available.
