摘　　要：世界文化多元化背景下,道家思想逐渐融入西方大众生活,在美国表现尤为显著。原因是多方面的:一是道家典籍自身形式和内容及其西方印象使它具有强烈的召唤性;二是西方社会发展的选择,其二元文化的当代困境、心理学及科学的发展都契合了道家思想;三是美国自身文化的特点使然,美国超验主义本就与道家思想相通,道家思想又适时地成为极度个人主义的反拨力量,且美国二十世纪六七十年代对禅宗的接受以及风水、气功等的盛行都间接普及了道家思想。以美国为例,可以揭示道家思想西传的文化原因。Taoism philosophy is being integrated into mainstream western life under the background of cultural diversity, which is reflec-ted most significantly in contemporary America. The phenomenon can be explained as follows. Firstly, the form and thought and the western image of Taoism have a strong evocation. Secondly, it’ s the result of the development of western society, both the plight of du-al culture and the development of science and psychology agree with Taoism. Thirdly, such characteristics of America culture as tran-scendentalist and Taoism are interlinked, Taoism is the pulling force of individualism, the acceptance of Zen and the prevalence of Qigong and Feng shui also promote the popularity of Taoism.
