中国语境中的公共道德与公民道德辨析

公德是一个范围极广的概念,公共道德和公民道德都属于公德范畴,然而,这两个词的含义并不相同。公民道德的培养有赖于公民社会的建立。而公德心却是任何一个形态的社会所必须有的。因此,澄清公民道德和公共道德的含义及其适用范围不仅有利于认清我国目前所存在的公德问题,而且有助于公共道德和公民道德的培养。

Morality without Intention

Abstract

An examination of how, in literature, silence and veiling are related to moral significance. The paper emphasizes Walter Benjamin’s essay on Goethe’s Elective Affiniites and Nathaniel Hawthorne’s “The Minister’s Black Veil” and poses the question of how the literary can possess moral meaning or effect when, as in these two works, silence and veiling appear as a means of refusing or denying intention. Benjamin’s and Hawthorne’s different critiques of the symbol are presented as the central issue around which the possibility of moral meaning is decided as an intentionless act. Benjamin’s preservation of the moral is interpreted as the cause of the paradoxical and contradictory sources of the expressionless and its critical violence as well as the veiling and secrecy he identifies as forming the true work of art. Against this account, Hawthorne’s story is read as the refusal of any preceding secret as the basis of a moral claim and thus as the defining category of the work of art.     

论国德与国运

一个国家、一个朝代的德,是其建立、维系、绵延与垂续的根本存在.以德为本,就是亲民、养民、保民,就是蓄大德以仁爱天下.自古有国有天下者,其兴衰治乱,嗣续绵延,未始不以德为本.惟建大德,立大本,方可绵延世泽,嗣续不已.

论社会主义核心价值观的道德维度

"社会主义核心价值观"中的"爱国、敬业",从道德维度看,体现了践行社会主义核心价值观要"明大德"的道德要求。"社会主义核心价值观"中的"文明、和谐、友善",从道德维度分析,体现了践行社会主义核心价值观要"守公德"的道德要求。"社会主义核心价值观"中的"诚信、友善",从道德维度看,体现了践行社会主义核心价值观要"守私德"的道德要求。其中,"友善"既关乎"公德",也关乎"私德"。"明大德""守公德""严私德"既统一于践行"社会主义核心价值观"之中,也统一于新时代道德建设的过程中,故而,践行社会主义核心价值观,需加强新时代的道德建设。     

康德纯粹的道德观念及其影响

在大众道德活动中,杂多的普通理性导致道德理论的浅薄、任性的价值准则导致道德规律的遮蔽、对立的主体行为导致道德生活的纠结等。鉴于杂拌的道德观念的诸多困难,康德构建了纯粹的道德观念,试图以绝对的善良意志、普遍的形式原则、尊重的主体责任等价值合理性,颠覆杂拌的道德观念的缺陷,促使道德理论的深刻、道德规律的确立与道德生活的和谐。真正德性论的创立、罗尔斯抽象契约论的建构以及当代人们观念中的纯粹道德情结的产生等从不同方面表明,康德纯粹的道德观念对现代道德理论与道德实践都产生了重要影响。     

International Obligations and the Morality of War

Americans are not as religiously divided on foreign policy questions as they are over such hot-button, culture war domestic issues as abortion and gay marriage. Nevertheless, surveys suggest that Americans’ attitudes on several foreign policy fronts are consistent with a religious worldview. This analysis draws primarily on the findings of various PRC polls to examine the relationship between religion and three areas of foreign policy: the role of the USA in the world; the nature of international obligations; and the morality of war.

论民主行政与社会伦理
