当代大学生道德取向的比照与嬗变——兼论基于“中层理论”的道德建设新方略

Reference and Change of the Moral Orientation for Contemporary University Students——On the New Strategy of Moral Building Based on the "Mid-level" Theory

伴随着社会主义市场经济的发展,当代大学生对道德的社会功能及其道德认知呈现出新的取向,在继承、涤荡和挑战传统道德的基础上,他们形成了新的价值观念、道德意识和生态伦理、网络伦理等新领域的道德准则。我们应在宏大理论和宏观结构与具体行为和事实经验之间建立一种“中层理论,”指导道德取向或道德行为的经验研究。这种基于“中层理论”的道德建设方略,不仅适用于大学生,也适用于全体公民,是新时期道德建设的一种新方略。

In line with development of the socialist market economy, contemporary university students are showing a new trend in their understanding of the social function of moral. After inheriting the way of revolution and challenge against traditional moral, they have formed their moral principles in some new fields, such as value concept, moral awareness, ecological ethics, and intemet ethics. We need to build a mid-level theory between those macro-theories or macro -structures and individual acts or factual experiences to guide those empirical studies in moral orientation and moral acts. Such a strategy of moral building based on ＂mid-level＂ theory will be applied not only to university students, but also to all the people.
