An Examination of the Premises, Connotation, and Historical Materialist Perspective of "History Repeating Itself"
摘要: 波拿巴叔侄均从权力边缘返回,且都完成了双重政变,呈现出历史的某种“重演”。“历史重演”意指历史事实、事物由于内在原因、属性、本质一致而呈现出相似的表现与趋势,其实质是人类历史发展规律在特定时空条件下以相似的历史事件为介体的外部表现。思想家探讨“历史重演”意涵分歧的焦点在于人类历史是否存在实质上的可重复性。考察“历史重演”需统一“重演”的标准,将其与“重现”“相似”相区分。在历史唯物主义视域中,波拿巴叔侄政变的重演是历史必然性与偶然性的辩证统一,表现了历史发展的曲折性,确证了人民群众是历史最终裁决者。对“历史重演”的把握有利于增强历史主动性,防范历史风险,科学制定发展战略。
Abstract: Both the uncle and nephew Bonaparte returned from the margins of power and each carried out a dual coup, illustrating a form of “history repeating itself.” The concept of “history repeating itself” suggests that due to inherent causes, attributes, or essences, historical events and phenomena exhibit similar trends and characteristics. In essence, it reflects the manifestation of human historical development laws through comparable historical events within specific time and space conditions. Thinkers’ debates over the meaning of “history repeating itself” center on whether human history contains an inherent repeatability. To analyze “history repeating itself,” it is essential to establish a clear standard for “repetition,” distinguishing it from “reoccurrence” and “similarity.” From the perspective of historical materialism, the repeated coups by the Bonapartes represent a dialectical unity of historical necessity and contingency, illustrating the non-linear progression of history and affirming that the people are the ultimate arbiters of history. Understanding “history repeating itself” can enhance historical initiative, mitigate historical risks, and inform the scientific formulation of development strategies.
