当代西方美德伦理学的诉求与建构

Contemporary Western Virtue Ethics:Demand and Construction

近半个世纪以来,美德伦理学已经发展为一种与功利主义和义务论相抗衡的道德理论。其复兴的动机是对现代道德哲学以及当代社会的道德现实的不满,有着特定的时代诉求。经过许多当代哲学家的理论建构,美德伦理学成为了当代西方伦理学理论中引发众多哲学家的关注与争论的崭新理论。

Nearly half a century, Virtue Ethics have developed to be a kind of moral theory which contends with utilitarianism and deontology. Its motive of rising is discontenting modern moral phylosophy and the moral reality of contemporary society with some specific appeals of the time. With the theoretic constructions of contemporary philosophers, Virtue Ethics have become a new theory which initiates much attention and argument of many philosophers.
