🇺🇸《美国精神三河汇》第三集｜五月花公约｜美国契约精神的起点｜Puritans & the Mayflower Compact

1620 年，当五月花号在风暴中偏离航道，一群疲惫而渴望自由的清教徒，来到了一个“没有国王法律、没有官员、没有殖民宪章”的荒凉海岸。

在那艘破旧木船的甲板下，41 名普通人签下了一份只有两百字的文件，却为世界开创了政治文明的新路径。

《五月花公约》：
它不是由贵族制定，也不是王权授予；
而是 普通平民 在上帝面前、自愿立约，组成自治共同体。

在这里，民主的种子第一次落入北美的土地。
权力来自人民的同意，自由必须伴随责任，多元社会以契约而非暴力维系秩序。
这，就是美国文明最深的底层逻辑。

本集我们将走进：

被风暴吹偏航向后的危机

清教徒在“法律真空地带”的分裂

布拉福德如何提出“信仰立约 vs 自由分裂”

《五月花公约》的内容、精神与世界意义

契约精神如何进入《独立宣言》与美国《宪法》

一段新文明的种子，就这样在初冬的普利茅斯海岸悄然萌芽。

✨ English Description

In 1620, the Mayflower was blown off course by a violent storm.
Instead of reaching Virginia—with its English laws and established governance—the Pilgrims landed on the desolate shores of Massachusetts, a place with no royal authority, no charter, no officials, and no legal structure.

In this vacuum of law and order, tensions rose.
Some passengers claimed: “The King’s law has no authority here.”

At this critical moment, William Bradford and the Pilgrim leaders proposed something revolutionary:
If we do not covenant together in faith, we will fall apart in freedom.

Thus, 41 ordinary men signed the Mayflower Compact—
the first political covenant in world history created not by kings or nobles, but by common people freely joining together to form a civil community.

Its principles shaped the DNA of the United States:

Government by the consent of the governed

A multi-ethnic society held together by covenant, not blood

Liberty tied to responsibility

Equality under the law

A new civilization began to grow on the cold shores of Plymouth.#五月花公约 #MayflowerCompact #清教徒 #美国精神 #AmericanHistory #契约精神
