摘　　要：诺曼·梅勒认为,二战后的美国有可能面临极权统治的威胁,但美国式极权主义不同于希特勒的法西斯或斯大林的苏联,它将以"保守的自由主义"的面目出现。为了反抗保守的自由主义,梅勒从存在主义的立场出发,写出了充满激进理想主义的文章《白色的黑人》。本文试图通过对《白色的黑人》一文的写作动机与哲学基础的挖掘以及对保守的自由主义的思想内涵的分析来论证:作为激进的理想主义者的梅勒,其实自身也是一位保守的自由主义者。Norman Mailer believes that post-war America faces the threat of a totalitarian government, but different from Hitler＇ s Third Reich or Stalin＇ s Soviet Union. American totalitarianism will emerge in the guise of ＂Conservative Liberalism＂, an idea he proposes in the closing section of The Naked and the Dead. To counterattack it, Mailer comes up with ＂The White Negro＂, an essay brimming with his existential and radical idealism. By digging into the writing motivation behind and the philosophical basis of ＂The White Negro＂ and analyzing the connotations of ＂Conservative Liberalism＂, this essay tries to prove that Mailer, no doubt a radical idealist, is in effect a conservative liberal himself.
