“向钱看”的经济正当性与道德正当性

″Money-oriented″ Economic Legitimacy and Moral Legitimacy

在市场经济规律要求下的"向钱看",被解释为对物质财富的追求;虽然它以利己心为动机,具有经济的正当性,但在道德上是中立的,不必然具有正当性。市场经济的矛盾运动,使"向钱看"可能出现两种不同的发展趋势,即可能发展为符合道德的"向钱看",也可能发展为不符合道德的"向钱看"。这就是"向钱看"的两种德性。一概地认为"向钱看"都是符合道德、符合法律的论断,是不能成立的;把赚钱一概地认作是衡量社会贡献的尺度,并视之为普遍规律,也是没有根据的。其之所以错误,在于它把社会财富增长在历史发展总进程中的进步作用,作为社会个体"向钱看"行为进步性的根据,忽视了个体行为的不道德、违法的可能性,从而把一切不道德、违法的"向钱看"也看作进步的社会行为。应该提倡具有道德正当性的"向钱看",反对违背道德的"向钱看"。

″Money-oriented″ under the requirements of the rules of market economy,is interpreted as the pursuit of material wealth.Although it takes self-interest for motivation,with the economic legitimacy,it′s morally neutral,with legitimacy not necessarily.The contradictory movement of market economy makes ″money-oriented″ may have two kinds of different tendency,namely the ethical ″money-oriented″ or unethical ″money-oriented″.These are the two kinds of tugends of ″money-oriented″.It cannot be established that all ″money-oriented″ is regarded as the inference according with the ethical and law,and it is no basis that making money is entirely regarded as the scale of measuring social contribution and the universal law.It′s wrong to make the progress effect of the social wealth growth in the process of historical development as the basis of social individual ″money-oriented″ behavior progressive,and ignore the possibility of the unethical and illegal individual behavior,then put all unethical and illegal ″money-oriented″ also as the social progress behavior.″Money-oriented″ with moral legitimacy should be advocated,and against moral be opposed.
