Human nature thought has always been the core content of Chinese traditional culture,and has a different understanding on human nature.Since modern times,people's understanding of human nature can not get rid of the comparison with the western hermeneutics and philosophy.Nevertheless,western philosophers have a different understanding of human nature: From Hume's “Theory of Human Nature” to Marx's “Theory of Human Beings”,there is a big difference between Hume's and Marx's theory.Specifically,since the beginning of fourteenth century,a bourgeois cultural trend of thought set off in Europe,which mainly embodies humanistic thought,promoting science,affirming human rights,opposing religion and theocracy and plays a positive role in anti feudalism in some extent.While the bourgeoisie is not accurate enough to grasp human nature,it just unrealistically talks about mutual human nature.Since the twentieth century,the study of human nature has a new development,including Martin Heidegger's phenomenology of understanding about “dasein and existence”,Freud's psychoanalytic theory,Maslow's hierarchy needs and so on.This shows that human nature thought is an eternal philosophical topic,and it is hard to understand through a simple linear method because of the complex of human nature thought.It needs to use the thinking method of system theory to establish the system model for studying the human nature on the basis of modern system science.Only like this can we comprehensively understand and explain human nature thought,better shape people's character,and guide people's thought and behavior.Thus,thesis conducts a research on human nature thought under the horizon of systematic theory.Firstly,human nature system and its elements are analyzed,multiple models of human nature system are put forward,and constructive process of human nature system model and its characteristic are explained.Secondly,hierarchy and duality of human nature system and its adjusting affection are demonstrated,and it also strengthens that human nature system study needs to be grasped on three traits: integrality,hierarchy and dynamics.Finally,the reality meaning of human nature system theory is explicated: firstly,the pursuit of the individual,including seeking truth,pursuing goodness and towarding beauty.Secondly,the pursuit of the groups: the harmony of the mankind,nature and the society.Thirdly,the liberation of human nature,including freedom and all-round development.So symmetrymechanism of “ antinomy ” of human nature should be grasped,and positive energy of cognition,emotion and volition should be given full play in the process of seeking truth,pursuing the good,yearning for beauty,which can guide human moving toward a better future.In conclusion,“You create yourself and also create the world and future!” This conclusion fully shows the importance of individual freedom,cultivation and responsibility in the development of human nature.When a person wants to pursuit a beautiful world and future,he or she needs to do something from himself or herself and life around himself or herself.Therefore,there is a new understanding for Chinese traditional moral philosophy of“Method of interaction with others”,which is the free and all-round development of the people in the new era.
