西部大开发是我国二十一世纪经济与社会发展的一项长期的重大战略。西部大开发实践所凸现的发展问题、生态问题等一系列非常复杂的社会问题,其中既有广泛的经济内涵,又有深刻的伦理意蕴。当代中国经济伦理学对这些问题应给予极大的关注和认真的研究,从而为西部经济和社会发展建构正确的经济伦理价值导向。在这个意义上,这些问题为当代中国经济伦理学的发展提供了新的重要的生长点。 The great development of the western region is a long-term major strategy for the economic and social development in our country in the 21st century. A series of very complicated social problems such as development problems and ecological problems highlighted by the practice of western development have not only extensive economic connotations but also profound ethical implications. The contemporary Chinese economic ethics should pay great attention and study earnestly to these problems so as to construct a correct economic ethical value orientation for the economic and social development in the western region. In this sense, these issues provide a new important starting point for the development of contemporary Chinese economic ethics.
