提 要：荀子与霍布斯都从现实性上也即“人情论”的立场上来观察和把握了“人性恶”的事实，都意识到人性恶的肆意膨胀和发展会导致社会乃至整个世界体系的无序和混乱。然而，在如何限制人性之恶进而去构筑良好社会秩序的对策上，荀子强调“礼教”，霍布斯注重“理法”。荀子要达到的是“王道社会”，霍布斯欲建立的是“理性和正义的国家”，虽理想有别，但目的都是为了实现人与人以及人与社会的和谐相处。

Author:Gbur Adam, Doctoral Candidate, Faculty of History and Culture, Northeast Normal University, Changchun, Jilin, 130024, China

Abstract:Setting out from the position of genuine character, namely from “theory of essential human natureXunzi and Hobbes came to hold and observe the idea and reality of “man’s evil nature”, realizing that the development and the recklessly expending evil nature of man can cause not only social instability but also disorder of the entire universe. Nevertheless by somehow restricting this evil nature of man and taking countermeasures against it, social order can be established; therefore Xunzi emphasized the importance of “Lijiao”(礼教, moral education) while Hobbes put emphasis on the importance of “reason”. Xunzi wished to achieve a “Wangdao” (王道, benevolently ruled society) while Hobbes wanted to establish a “country based on justice and rationality”. Although their ideals are different, but behind their entire endeavor, the final aim was to actualize a harmonious life for man and bring a harmony between people and society.
