市场与道德并非不可兼容。当下中国的道德失范实质上与中国社会的深刻转型有着紧密联系。三十多年的改革在推倒种种不合时宜的旧规则的同时,却又无法很快建立起新的规则,遂使整个社会在很长一段时期内处于既没有旧的规范,也没有新的规范的状态,从而诱发出人心中逐利欲望的膨胀。由此又使本来意义上的市场法则被引进社会生活和人际交往之中,衍生出社会的泛市场化。因此,对于道德困境的认识,本质上便是对于道德困境所包含的社会内容的认识。只有把握这一背景,才能更为深刻地理解当前重提“德治”的理由和意义,及其与深化改革之间的深度联系。 Market and ethics are not incompatible. At present, China’s moral anomie is in fact closely linked with the profound transformation of Chinese society. Over the past 30 years, while pushing forward the outdated old rules, the 30 years of reform have failed to establish new rules soon. As a result, the entire society has neither old nor new norms for a long period of time State, thus inducing the expansion of desire by the heart of the people. This in turn makes the original meaning of the market rules were introduced into social life and interpersonal relationships, derived from the pan-market society. Therefore, the understanding of the moral predicament is essentially the understanding of the social contents contained in the moral predicament. Only by grasping this background can we have a deeper understanding of the reasons and significance of re-emphasizing “virtue governance” and its deep relationship with deepening reforms.
