宽容既是一种美德,也存在着缺陷。宽容作为美德会带来自由与和平,但也隐藏着走向相对主义的危险,即对他人冷漠、不关心真理、质疑共同体的价值等。本文通过对宽容内涵的演变指出,作为多元文化基础的宽容必须以坚定的信念为前提,并只有通过教育才能做到既坚持宽容又克服上述缺陷,而教育之本在于对人的本质和终极目标进行深刻反思。 Tolerance is both a virtue and a flaw. Tolerance as virtue will bring freedom and peace, but also hides the danger of relativism, that is, being indifferent to others, not caring about the truth and questioning the value of the community. Through the evolution of connotation of tolerance, this paper points out that tolerance as the basis of multiculturalism must be premised on firm conviction, and only through education can we not only persevere in tolerance but also overcome the above defects. Education, on the other hand, is based on the essence and the ultimate goal of human beings Deep reflection.
