论儒家伦理中的“活元素”——兼谈普适价值问题

On the "Living Elements" in Confucian Ethics——Concurrently Talk About Universal Value

普适价值是一种事实存在,世界一体化的趋势为普适价值的存在和建构提供了必要性。儒家伦理并非已经死去的历史陈迹,而是至今活着的文化生命。它渊源于过去,又奔流向未来。就是说,儒家伦理中包含有现实化和未来化因子的"活元素",这些活着的东西不是别的,正是那些体现着人的类价值(普适价值)的东西,主要是天人论、德本论、德治论、德育论、群己论、义利论、理欲论、品德论、修养论,等等。

Universal value is a kind of factual existence. The tendency of world integration provides the necessity of the existence and construction of universal value. Confucian ethics is not a dead history, and it is still a living culture life. It has o- riginated from the past and matches forward to future. That is to say, Confucian Ethics embodies modernized and future-orientated “living elements”. And the “living elements” is just the elements that represent the universal values of human being, They are theory on heaven and man, morality principal argument, theory of rule of virtue, theory of moral education, theory on the individual and society, theory on the profit and obligation, theory of ration and passion, theory of morality, theory of culti- vation, etc.
