摘要
在帝制中国的文化观念和制度安排中,既有从制度上强调男权中心、排斥否定女权的一面,又因"孝道"观念、君主制度的基本缺陷等因素而存在着肯定母权、依赖母权的一面,由此形成一方面谴责防范后妃干政、一方面后妃干政又层出迭见的局面。在某种意义上,后妃作为一种"幕后替补力量"至少使皇权得以象征性地维持,使专制国家得以继续运转。不过,后妃干政的合法性资源主要来自传统意识形态的"孝道"层面,其制度层面上的合法性资源毕竟不足,所谓"女祸"其实是在统治集团各个方面的共同参与下完成的。透过上述制度设计缺陷和话语系统的矛盾,也不难进一步看到传统政治思维和政治智慧的严重缺失。
In the cultural concept and the institutional arrangement of imperial China, there were both emphasizing the center of men's power as well as denying Matriarchy, and confirming mother power or even depending on it because of the idea of filial duty and the basic defects of monarchy. Thus the following situation was formed: on one hand, the empress & concubine to interfere with politics was condemned and forbidden, on the other hand, the facts of the empress & concubine to interfere with politics occurred frequently. However, the legitimacy resource of the empress & concubine to interfere with politics mainly came from the filial duty in the traditional ideology, and its legitimacy resource in institution was insufficient. The so\|called calamity from women was resulted from the mutual participation of the ruling group. From the defects in the design of the institution and the contradiction of linguistic system, which were discussed on the above, we can further find the serious defects of the traditional political thinking and political wisdom without any difficulties.
