“普世价值”是一种似是而非的话语形式,具有很强的迷惑性。作为西方“民主、自由、平等、人权”的代词,“普世价值”是西方推行意识形态霸权和文化帝国主义的手段。它既缺乏客观的价值形成基础,又忽视价值观念体系的独特性,是造成当代世界价值冲突的主要根源之一。批判“普世价值”崇拜,澄清“普世价值”与国际公认价值的根本区别,有助于增强把握引领国内社会思潮和培育国际公认价值的主动权。 “Universal value ” is a paradoxical discourse that is very deceptive. As the pronoun of the West, “democracy, freedom, equality, and human rights,” “universal value” is a means used by the West to promote ideological hegemony and cultural imperialism. It lacks the objective foundation of value formation and neglects the uniqueness of the system of values ​​and is one of the main causes of the value conflicts in the contemporary world. Criticism of “universal values” worship and clarification of the fundamental difference between “universal values” and internationally recognized values ​​can help enhance the initiative to take the lead in domestic social trends and nurture internationally recognized values.
