Abstract
ABSTRACT:The author endeavors to show how dialectical methods can reveal and clarify Ayn Rand's philosophy from the two vital perspectives of the lives of individual human beings in relation to the world and in relation to other people and the social institutions under which they live. In so doing, he applies Chris Matthew Sciabarra's Tri-Level Analysis model of social relations (derived from Rand's social commentaries) and relates Rand's metaphysical value-judgments to the cardinal values and virtues of her ethics.
摘要:本文试图从人类个体的生命与世界的关系、与他人的关系以及他们所生活的社会制度这两个至关重要的视角,来展示辩证法是如何揭示和阐明安哲学的。在这样做的过程中,他应用了Chris Matthew Sciabarra的社会关系三级分析模型(源于兰德的社会评论),并将兰德的形而上学价值判断与她的道德观的基本价值观和美德联系起来。
