Abstract

[The thought activities of humans are not only subjectSubject (主体) to the laws of thought, but also comprise our thoughts about the world constructed through the various modes on the basis of which we comprehend the world. Common sense, religion, art, science, and philosophy mediate the real relations with the world that are formed based on the practical activities of humans. In other words, they are the basic methods by which humans ‘grasp’ the world. All human thoughts are constructed through the various modes by which humans comprehend the world. Therefore, a philosophical critique of the underlying premises of thoughtPremises of thought should necessarily include a critique of the basic modes that constitute thought. The basic modes by which we comprehend the world immediately provide us with a variety of rich worldviews, for they are themselves the different modes by which we comprehend the world. These basic modes not only provide humans with a variety of worldviews, but can also determine our ways of thinking and the values and norms of our thoughts and behaviors. Therefore, as the fundamental ways of comprehending the world, the three-fold intensions of worldview, mode of thinking and value norms constitute the objectObject (客体) of the reflective and philosophical thinking. Regarding the implications for the premise critique of thought, it is especially important that a philosophical critique of the underlying premises of the basic modes by which humans comprehend the world involves a critique of the premises of this conceptual frameworkConceptual framework (概念框架) and its three levels: commonsenseCommonsense (常识), science, and philosophy. In the critique of this three-level conceptual frameworkConceptual framework (概念框架), new ladders and scaffolding will be constructed concerning the history of human civilization, and, further, the historical transformation of the human worldview, modes of thought, and value norms will be realized.]
