我国伦理学研究中的方法论倾向及其缺陷

The Methodological Tendency and the Defects in Chinese Ethics Study

我国伦理学研究在取得令人关注的成果的同时,在基本原理和基础理论研究方面,尤其是在理论体系的建构方面却难以突破,伦理学教科书从理论体系到具体内容,基本上还是"几十年一贯制"。产生这种现象的原因是多方面的,而伦理学研究中存在的方法论倾向及其缺陷是一个不容忽视的原因。要改变这一状况,必须克服以往伦理学研究中以哲学的一般原则取代具体的伦理分析,以阶级分析代替对现实生活的考察,以及理论研究脱离实际,局限于某种既定的理论框架和模式,满足于对现行方针政策的道德诠释等倾向,摒弃伦理学研究中保守、僵化、封闭的思维模式和研究思路,鼓励理论探索和学术创新。这是伦理学自身发展的需要,也是社会主义道德建设和现实生活对伦理学提出的客观要求。

Chinese ethics study has made great progress, but in the study of basic principle and theory, especially in the theoretical system construction, it has made little achievements. From the ethics textbook to its content, ethics is following its traditional way. There are various reasons for that, but the methodological tendency and the defects in the study should be more concerned about. It should be abandoned that the basic philosophical theory is used to substitute concrete ethics analysis, class analysis to realistic research and so on. Theoretical porbe and intellectual creation should be encouraged. This is the only way to meet the need of the development of ethics and the objective requirement of the society.
