毛澤東獨特的辯證法是一種作為實踐智慧的辯證法,它與馬克思的《資本論》中作為理論智慧的辯證法不同,但卻與之構成互補,從而革命性地拓展了馬克思主義辯證法的疆域。這種拓展乃是毛澤東通過對中國傳統哲學"事"的本體論的發揮、發展而為,因而是一種中國式的拓展。這一拓展之能夠成功,意味著中國傳統哲學的這種"事"的本體論與經典馬克思主義哲學的本體論有著某種內在的親和性,而這又進而意味著我們只有從"事"的本體論去理解馬克思的哲學方能對之達到更為深入的把握。

Mao Zedong’s unique dialectic as a kind of dialectic of phronesis( practical wisdom) is different from the dialectic of theoretical wisdom in Marx’s Capital,but complements the latter and thus revolutionarily expands the domain of Marxist dialectics. This sort of expansion,which Mao made by means of developing the ontology of shi( human affairs) in traditional Chinese philosophy,is therefore an expansion of Chinese style. The success of this expansion means that the ontology of shi in traditional Chinese philosophy has a kind of inherent affinity with the ontology of classical Marxist philosophy,and this further suggests that one can obtain a deeper understanding of the philosophy of Marx if we try to understand it from the perspective of the ontology of shi.
