Abstract
ABSTRACT Chinese philosophy is practical in orientation. This practical orientation is consistent with field philosophy, which aims to break the disciplinary mode of knowledge production and establish interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary modes, so as to overcome ‘disciplinary capture’ and enhance the social relevance of philosophy. For example, Chinese philosophy values action more than commentary and discussion more than writing. Chinese philosophy has these characteristics because it is based on the Si Xue (private learning or private school) institution of ancient times. While Chinese philosophy and field philosophy have a number of characteristics in common, this does not mean that Chinese philosophy and field philosophy are identical. They possess a family resemblance, with each of them having their own independence and inherent regularities. Chinese philosophy belongs to ancient philosophy, coming from premodern times, and field philosophy is a postmodern philosophy. Even so, they still can learn from each other.
