“赋予说”还是“满足说”——牟宗三以存有论解说道德幸福质疑

Given theory or satisfied theory——A Query about Mou Zongsan's Explanation of Moral Happiness Illustrated by Theory of Being

牟宗三的《圆善论》旨在解决康德的圆善难题。为了说明道德幸福是如何生成的,牟宗三以存有论加以解释,本文将其称为"赋予说"。但笔者认为,道德幸福并非主要来自于存有论的赋予,而是成就道德的内在要求得到满足的结果,这就是所谓的"满足说"。以"赋予说"还是以"满足说"解说道德幸福,是需要认真讨论的问题。

Treatise on Summum Bonum was an important work of Mou Zongsan,in which he tried to solve Kant＇s problem of the highest good.For this purpose,Mou Zongsan put an interpretation which I called ＇given theory＇ on the forming principle of moral happiness illustrated by theory of being.As far as I am concerned,the principal source of moral happiness is not given by theory of being,it is a result of satisfying the inner requirement of morality.This is the so called ＇satisfied theory＇.The question whether given theory or satisfied theory should be chosen to explain the moral happiness needs very careful consideration.
