3月10日,汪晖写于20多年前的博士论文《反抗绝望》被指存在多处抄袭。7月7日《明升官网青年报》发表了包括汪丁丁、郑也夫、张鸣等在内的63位国内外学者的公开信,呼吁明升官网社会明升体育app院和清华大学组织调查委员会调查。7月9日,哥伦比亚大学刘禾教授给凤凰网发来邮件,告知80多位海外学者曾联署签名信寄给了清华大学校长。在这封公开信中,80多位学者力挺汪晖,称通过学者举证发现任何剽窃都不存在!以下为刘禾教授发来的公开信说明及中英文版本。
发起者说明
从2010年3月中、下旬开始,围绕汪晖的早期著作《反抗绝望》一书,《南方周末》和《南方都市报》等媒体发表了大量的文章和访谈。网络媒体上的激烈争论更是十分罕见。从四月开始,有人向国外翻译、评论和出版过汪晖著作的译者、评论者、刊物和出版社广泛寄送匿名信,一些与汪晖合作过的学者和学术机构也成为这些匿名信的目标。有鉴于此,这些学者开始收集并研究有关“汪晖事件”的各类文章和讨论,并将相关情况向国际学术界的同行们通报。6月9日,国际学者致信清华大学校长陈述了他们的看法。此后,7月7日《明升官网青年报》发表了63人的签名信,当晚央视也对此事做了报道。因此,现在有必要将这封致清华大学校长的信公之于众。由于种种在主流媒体上发表这份文件的努力都遭遇了挫折,此信不得不在网络上公之于众。以下就是八十多位国际学者联合签署的公开信原文和签名,并附上中译文。
八十多位国际学者联合签署的公开信原文
中文译文:
尊敬的顾秉林校长与谢维和副校长:
作为学者、译者、编辑、历史学者和文化批评者的国际共同体的成员,我们给您写信,声援正在被大众传媒攻击的汪晖教授。最近发生的这次令人困惑的、有组织的媒体攻击可能被用来针对任何一个学者,正因为如此,我们-这封信的签字者-向您递呈这封信。
首先,汪晖教授被指责抄袭。这个指控已经在钟彪、舒炜、魏行和其他学者的严谨分析文章中被辩驳,它是不足信的。在这封信上签字的也有汪晖教授著作的译者,他们无疑是最熟悉汪晖教授的写作的。每位译者都检查并且复查了汪教授在过去三十年中著作所采用大量参考书目的注释。他们当中没有一人发现有任何剽窃的现象-不管我们多么宽松地定义剽窃这个词。
第二,我们之中有许多明升官网研究和亚洲专家。我们可以证明汪教授的学术诚信以及他在国际亚洲研究中的重要性。2010年春天,他被亚洲研究协会邀请在年会上做基调演讲,成为第一个获此殊荣的来自明升官网的亚洲研究学者。这份荣誉源自汪教授研究的广度、深度和可信度,以及他提出的问题的重要性,这些问题在他的著作所吸引的学者、追随者和有原则的批评者中引起了很大反响。在我们的学术共同体中,这是最高层次的承认。汪晖影响了国内和国外的学者,同时与这两个群体对话,并且在我们之间搭建了交流的桥梁。
第三,在社会和经济的激烈转型期,媒体对大学的攻击是很常见的现象。我们中的很多人见证过媒体攻击,它们的共同特点是对研究的不屑,并且丝毫不理解大学的学术研究是怎样在丰富着人们的日常生活,当然也包括明升体育app的、社会明升体育app的、人文和艺术的社会生活。当媒体文化针对一个特定的学者发起无端的攻击时,大学作为机构就被削弱了:合乎逻辑的下一步就是对大学本身进行攻击。
最后,当大学内部正常的文化政治被判为非法的时候,学术、高等教育、实验艺术和人文明升体育app的正当性也同样受到了威胁。在这种情况下,大学作为社会发展的中心机构的功能实际上就被取消了。
我们—这封信的签字者—很熟悉这个事件中已经公布的事实,并曾读过、在教学中使用过、友好地分析批评过或者翻译过汪晖教授的著作。
此致
敬礼
2010年6月9日

Dear President Gu Binglin and President Xie Weihe:
We write you as an international community of scholars, translators, editors, historians and cultural critics in support of Professor Wang Hui who is currently under attack from the popular media in China. This recent, baffling, organized media attack could happen to any scholar and for that reason we, the undersigned, present this letter.
First, Professor Wang has been accused of plagiarism. The charges have been contested and discredited in the careful analyses given by Zhong Biao, Shu Wei, Wei Xing and others. Among the signatories to this letter are also translators and they are without doubt closest to the work of Wang Hui. Each translator has checked and double checked all the footnotes in the vast bibliographies of Professor Wang's publications over the last thirty years. None has found any indication of plagiarism no matter how loosely this word is defined.
Second, among us are many Asia specialists in Chinese studies and we attest to Professor Wang's scholarly integrity and his importance in international Asian studies. The first Chinese scholar of Asia ever invited to address the Association of Asian Studies annual convention in spring 2010, Wang was honored for the breadth, depth and reliability of his scholarship and for the significance of the topics he has popularized among scholars and the many admirers and principled critics his work has attracted. This is recognition at the highest level possible among our community of scholarship. Wang Hui has influenced scholars in China and outside the country, speaking simultaneously to both constituencies and opening a bridge among us.
Third, media attacks on the universities during times of extreme social and economic transition are common. Many of us have witnessed media attacks and what they share is contempt for research and incomprehension of how university scholarship enriches everyday life, to say nothing of scientific, social scientific, humanistic and artistic social life. The university as an institution is weakened when unmotivated attacks from the media culture single out one scholar as a target: the next logical step is to attack the university itself.
Finally, when ordinary cultural politics inside the university are criminalized, the legitimacy of scholarship, higher education, experimental arts and human sciences is imperiled as well. The universities are effectively cancelled as central institutions of social development.
We, the undersigned are familiar with the known facts in this case and have read, taught, commented on the work of Professor Wang Hui critically and in a friendly fashion, or translated him.
We respectfully submit this letter,
