摘要： 一战与冷战之间的美国政治生活, 既有传统的两党争锋, 更有罗斯福新政、禁酒运动和战时动员等打上时代烙印的事件。与每一次争议性政治话题相影随的是人们在报纸上的激烈辩论。辩论者引经据典, 针砭时弊。鉴于孔子的盛名及其思想的巨大影响, 孔子成为政治评论中重要的参照对象乃至立论依据, 孔子以特殊的方式进入美国的政治文化传统。如此语境下的孔子形象褒贬兼有, 映射出美国人认识孔子时的一贯模式:一方面, 他们崇尚孔子思想的博大精深和人性关怀及其为人类社会确立的高远目标; 另一方面, 他们又对中国历朝政府僵化遵循儒家思想而致国力衰弱深感惋惜甚至蔑视。一战之后30年间美国报纸上的政治评论明白无误地展现出美国孔子形象一以贯之的双重性。
