中国传统诚信思想及其现代建构

Chinesetraditional honesty and its modern construction

诚信不仅是中华民族的传统美德,也是中国传统道德的一项基本规范。从历史上看,中国传统的诚信思想在规范中国人的行为、塑造中国人的人格等方面都发挥过极其重要的作用。同时,在社会生活的其他领域也发挥着举足轻重的作用。从现实情况看,随着社会主义市场经济的建立和发展,人们的物质文化生活日益丰富,伴随着也出现了与整个社会发展不相适应的现象,诚信缺失是目前中国社会生活中的严重问题之一。在此情况之下,批判地继承中国传统诚信思想,深入挖掘诚信资源,对于构建社会主义和谐社会有着重要的现实意义。

Sincerity is not only the traditional virtue of Chinese people, but also a basic standard of traditional Chinese ethics. Historically, Chinese traditional ideas played an important role in shaping the behavior of Chinese character; presently, with the development of the market economy and material life, there appears serious problems of the lack of honesty. In this situation, to critically inherit traditional Chinese honesty has important significance to construct a harmonious socialism.
