Content summary: There are very big differences in moral values civilizations between Chinese and Western cultures. This difference is now in the difference between “ethics” and “morality”. It is precisely because of this difference that has led Chinese and Western civilizations to tomorrow along the path of differences. In the era of globalization, Chinese and Western moral civilizations should be strengthened and shortened, and open up new directions for the continuous development of human society.

Chinese and Western civilizations are divergent as the overall human civilization, but there are indeed many differences in their development paths. The energy of these differences is multifaceted, but from the most basic point of view, it is the difference in its meta-civilization, that is, the difference in value in meaning. The author believes that this value difference can be expressed by two concepts, namely the difference between “ethics” and “morality”. Using “ethics” and “morality” as analyzing the differences between Chinese and Western civilizations can effectively clarify the differences and framework structures of the development of Chinese and Western civilizations, and thus establish a world of balanced mentality for the transportation, integration and development of Chinese and Western civilizations in the 21st century (Note: Song Mingshuang.Inclusive contractBalanced mentality and sustainable development[J].Beijing: Chinese Natural Certification Law Seminar Editorial Committee. Natural Certification Law Seminar, 2000.3), to support peace, cumulative wisdom, and open up a path for future generations.
1. The difference between ethics and morality
Ro Guojieshi taught: “In Han, the two concepts of ‘ethics’ and ‘morality’ are also in the same sense as the certain meaning of word origin, and are also related to Ethics and M in English The meaning of orale is connotated. ” (Note: Luo Guojie et al. Tutorial on Ethics[M]. Beijing: Chinese National Students’ Major Bookstore, 1986) Therefore, “whether in China or abroad, the two concepts of ‘ethics’ and ‘ethics’ were still thinking, the program began to be recorded again. Jiabin’s certain lexiconIn terms of meaning, it can be regarded as a synonym, which refers to the social moral phenomena. ” (Note: Luo Guojie et al. Ethics Tutorial [M]. Beijing Baoqing: Chinese National Students’ Major Bookstore, 1986) After analyzing the two words “ethics” and “ethics” are the same as: “Whether in China or in the East, ‘ethics’ are the same. Therefore, moral phenomena can also be called ethical phenomena, moral behavior can also be called ethical behavior, moral judgment can also be called ethical judgment, moral knowledge can also be called ethical knowledge. ” (Note: Wei Yingmin, Jin Kexi. Brief Tutorial on Ethics [M]. Beijing YearBaobao.com Night Study Bookstore, 1984)
The authors criticized the above views, but as a matter of analyzing the differences between Chinese and Western civilizations, the authors were willing to separate the two.
In fact, in the above views, the authors confirmed that ” When the reason and “morality” are interconnected, they also recognize the difference between the two at a certain level. Luo Guojie taught that “ethics” and “morality” are different. The more morals refer to the actual moral relationship between people, and the more morals refer to the kind of Related facts. (Note: Luo Guojie et al. Tutorial on ethics[M]. Beijing: Chinese National Students’ Major Book Club, 1986) Wei Yingmin and Jin Kexi believed that: “To discuss the East, the two words ‘ethics’ and ‘ethics’ are based on meaningBastering prices ptt are similar, and they are mutually common in a long period of history. It was not until Hegel clearly distinguished them. The former refers to social morality and the latter refers to human virtue. ” (Note: Wei Yingmin, Jin Kexi.LengBaobao.com RecommendedSimple Science Tutorial[M]. A young man was found in the branches in Beijing. Study Club, 1984) Fan Nian, a Chinese teacher at Huadong. In his article “Ethics and Immortality”, Yang Guorong also proposed: “Hegel once divided morality and ethics. In his opinion, morality is important to be connected with “responsible” and develops in conscience and other situations; ethics touches the social structures of the family, the municipal community, the country and other social structures. ” (Note: Yang Guorong. Ethics and Ideology [J]. Shanghai: Academic Monthly. Academic Monthly, 1996.6)
Similarly, the writer also criticized this division between morality and ethics, especially the Hegels. It realized the depth and independence of his thinking, and had a direct inspiration for the writer’s thinking and writing. This article is intended to be in the Hegels areaBased on the basics of the division, it combines the characteristics of Chinese and Western civilizations and makes ethics and morality a step-by-step determination.
It must be pointed out here that Confucian ethics is the use of real society and real people to express their ethical thoughts, and to use this to regulate people’s behavior. The root of this reality is the family, which is broadened by family and people, and forms the difficulty of family and country. In the 1990s, despite the impact of Eastern civilization for many years, especially Eastern moral civilization, and the economic development of the market has become fierce in China, but the social rumor that the social science journal, which has the most influential influence in China, published its own view: Chinese society is still an ethical society. (Note: Xie Xiaheng. Chinese society is an ethical society [J]. Beijing: Social Research and Research Journal Society. Social Research, 1996.6)
No doubt, in Chinese society, “ethical” is a real concept of enhanced emotions, a specific concept, a concept that best reflects the moral values of Chinese human nature and the focus of Chinese civilization. China’s morality is ethics, ethics morality.
The word morality in my modern interpretation is: “Tao”, that is, the path, extends to the meaning of principle, specification, law, and facts. In Lao Tzu’s view, “Tao” is the essence of the universe. Lao Tzu said: “Tao gives birth to one, two, two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things.” “De” means implementing a certain principle and gaining something in your heart. “Virtue means gain.” According to the understanding of the sling, “things can be born into virtue” emphasizes the natural nature of all things.
In modern China, this kind of moral understanding, which is based on inner rules and confidence, has manifested the metaphysical thinking about morality. However, because of “destroying all schools of thought and respecting Confucianism alone”, Taoist thinking has lost the opportunity to lead society. In Confucianism, although its moral character and thinking have a certain level of metaphysical nature, its moral character is based on the most basic nature of family members, and coupled with its moral reality, it emphasizes the “gratitude” of human nature. Therefore, Confucian moral character is essentially a moral character that emphasizes the real society.
In the East, from ancient Greek to medieval times, to literary rejuvenation and inspirational movement, Eastern civilizations with Greek and Christian civilizations as the symbols, either abstract people in a genre and build a foundation for moral qualities with sensibility; or “transcendent breakthrough” of individuals and use God as the moral goal that individuals seek permanently. It is based on the emotional differences between modern China, which is dominated by Confucian morality. Oriental morality is based on the abstraction and transcendence of humanity. It is abstract and metaphysical. This lacks the moral character of human nature that is based on family, it has formed a clear distinction between China’s sensible morality, and it has also formed the quality and focus of Oriental morality. It is the original dynamic of Oriental society’s development to this day, and it is also the most fundamental and authoritative rule that explains the mainstream and social contradictions of Oriental social politics, economy, and civilization development today.
