摘要：

当代贤能政治论争由于采用不同的“贤能”叙事，一定程度上造成了语境错位与概念含混。为此需要在厘清“贤能”多重含义及历史叙事基础上，重新辨识传统贤能政治中合现代性的话语，建构贤能政治的现代叙事方式。基于“尚力”“尚财”“尚德”三种元话语，传统贤能政治衍生出斗争与刑罚、祭祀与经纪、教化与吸纳六种主要叙事原理，并按照一定的发生逻辑与主从关系组合形塑了不同特征的贤能政治形态。现代贤能政治的话语场域应当由权力关系话语回归伦理关系话语，由纵向的传统伦理关系叙事重构横向的合现代性的伦理关系叙事。源于对家庭、家国、国际、自然、人机等差序关系的审慎思考，贤能政治能够为中国的国际形象提供积极正面的话语支持，也将为人类文明形态发展提供更多可能性。

Abstract:

On the basis of clarifying the multiple meanings and historical narratives of“meritocracy”, it isnecessary to re-identify the discourse of modernity in the traditional political meritocracy, and to construct amodern narrative of the political meritocracy. Based on the three meta-discourses of“powerful” “wealthy”and“ethical”, the traditional political meritocracy derives six main narrative principles, namely, conflict,punishment, sacrifice, management, edification and recruitment, and follows a certain logic of occurrenceand the relationship between master and subordinate, the combination of these six principles has shaped the political form of meritocracy with different characteristics. The discourse field of modern political meritocracy should return from the discourse of power relations to the discourse of ethical relations, and reconstruct the horizontal narrative of ethical relations with modernity from the vertical narrative of traditional ethical relations. Based on the prudent consideration of family, state, international, human-nature, human-machine relations, etc., political meritocracy can provide positive discourse support for China’s international image, and will also provide more possibilities for the development of human civilization.
