生产型政治哲学的兴衰:华夏文明五千年演进的内在逻辑

Abstract: This paper systematically expounds a theoretical system of political philosophy endogenously derived from the internal logic of Chinese civilization itself—"Productive Political Philosophy." The construction of this system begins with a core discovery: from its very origin, Chinese civilization has been a political entity whose fundamental task is "organizing production and ensuring survival," with its legitimacy rooted in actual contributions to the survival and development of the community. This paper traces the complete derivation of this theoretical system: extracting the core dynamic principle of "aligning justice with benefit, granting rank according to merit" from ancient collective memory, and demonstrating that Chinese civilization established human subjectivity at its source—an "embedded subjectivity"—thereby completing a unique form of "unifying leap"; tracing the origins and differentiation mechanisms of the materialist and idealist civilizational threads from the archaeological evidence of Taosi; refining the "Community Cohesion Model" from the comparison of the Shang and Zhou civilizational paths; deriving the "Dynamic Success Probability Model" from the paradox of Confucian and Mohist destinies; establishing the "Political Philosophy Cohesion Model" from the structural comparison of the Zhou Rites, Shang theocracy, and Confucianism; and finally, linking the three models to interpret the five-thousand-year evolution of Chinese civilization, revealing a complete civilizational rhythm of four major transitions and three inversions of dominance. In this process, this paper introduces the core variable of "effective productive population" that bridges ancient and modern times, clarifies that the cohesion of political philosophy is a necessary condition for endogenous scientific development, reveals the internal mechanism of the Zhou Rites' collapse due to "methodological tool rigidity," and ultimately distills the golden rule of "rigid values, flexible methodology." This paper is not only a systematic exposition of a theoretical framework but also a complete demonstration of its derivation process, enabling readers to examine the rationality and logical coherence of each step of reasoning. This paper is a theoretical and hypothetical exploration, aiming to stimulate interdisciplinary discussion and subsequent testing. Keywords: Productive Political Philosophy; Community Cohesion Model; Dynamic Success Probability Model; Political Philosophy Cohesion Model; Zhou Rites; Ritual and Warfare; Callback Pressure; Inversion of Dominance; Effective Productive Population; Methodological Tool Rigidity; Rigid Values, Flexible Methodology

Abstract

Abstract: This paper systematically expounds a theoretical system of political philosophy endogenously derived from the internal logic of Chinese civilization itself—"Productive Political Philosophy."

This paper traces the complete derivation of this theoretical system: extracting the core dynamic principle of "aligning justice with benefit, granting rank according to merit" from ancient collective memory, and demonstrating that Chinese civilization established human subjectivity at its source—an "embedded subjectivity"—thereby completing a unique form of "unifying leap"; tracing the origins and differentiation mechanisms of the materialist and idealist civilizational threads from the archaeological evidence of Taosi; refining the "Community Cohesion Model" from the comparison of the Shang and Zhou civilizational paths; deriving the "Dynamic Success Probability Model" from the paradox of Confucian and Mohist destinies; establishing the "Political Philosophy Cohesion Model" from the structural comparison of the Zhou Rites, Shang theocracy, and Confucianism; and finally, linking the three models to interpret the five-thousand-year evolution of Chinese civilization, revealing a complete civilizational rhythm of four major transitions and three inversions of dominance.
