摘要

莱因霍尔德·尼布尔的《光明之子与黑暗之子》是20世纪40年代早期战后定居文学的重要英文文本之一。本文从三个相互关联的层面分析这本书:尼布尔在书中提出的论点的性质,它在20世纪40年代早期更广泛的战后解决文献中的地位,以及它与当前右翼民粹主义和气候危机问题的相关性。虽然这本书的主题是民主的必要性和不可能性,但它与以赛亚·鲍曼(Isaiah Bowman)和大卫·米特拉尼(David Mitrany)的作品一样,都关注国家与相互依存之间的紧张关系。从那以后,这种紧张关系的加深帮助尼布尔保持了相关性,尽管他最初对光明之子和黑暗之子的区分被民粹主义和气候危机复杂化了。

Re-reading Niebuhr’s The Children of Light and the Children of Darkness: The crisis of democracy in an interdependent world then and now
Reinhold Niebuhr’s The Children of Light and the Children of Darkness is one of the key English-language texts in the post-war settlement literature of the early 1940s. This article analyses the book on three interconnected levels: the nature of the argument made by Niebuhr in the book, its place in the broader post-war settlement literature of the early 1940s, and its relevance to the current problems of right-wing populism and the climate crisis. While the main theme of the book is the necessity and impossibility of democracy, it shares with the work of Isaiah Bowman and David Mitrany a concern for the tension between the state and interdependence. The deepening of this tension since has helped keep Niebuhr relevant, although his initial distinction between the children of light and the children of darkness has been complicated by both populism and the climate crisis.
