道德优先论:康德与牟宗三比较

A Comparison between Kant and Mou Zongsan on Moral Priority

康德为解决理性运用中的统一问题,依据逻辑确定实践理性具有优先地位;牟宗三则依据中国传统资源认为德行优先于知识。对两者进行比较发现,道德优先是康德和牟宗三各自建立道德形而上学的必要前提;因而道德优先论之花开出的结果必然是有待实践证实的道德理想主义。

To solve the unity problem in rational utilization,Kant puts practical rationality in a prior position according to logic,while Mou Zongsan regards that morality is prior to knowledge according to traditional Chinese source.Comparing the two,we may find that moral priority is the precondition for Kant and Mou Zongsan to propose moral metaphysics respectively,and it will certainly lead to moral idealism to be tested by practice.
