意义评估与路径选择——对公正与和谐问题的理论思考

Value Evaluation and Path Selection: A Theoretical Thinking of Impartiality and Harmony

公正、秩序、和谐都是和谐社会的特征,也是和谐社会的基本价值取向和和谐社会建设的基本目标。但是,公正、秩序、和谐在和谐社会中的地位、对和谐社会的意义并不相同。其中,公正才是和谐社会的首要价值。只有在公正的前提下才会有真正的秩序和和谐。公正的制度安排是建设和谐社会的基本途径。公正的制度安排在社会中扮演了无偏私仲裁人的角色,从而实现利益的公正分配。在建设和谐社会时要避免两种不良倾向:将和谐、秩序理解为无冲突、无矛盾;将和谐简化为秩序,甚至稳定。

Impartiality, order and harmony are the characteristics of a harmonious society. They are also the basic value orientations of harmonious society and tbe basic aims of the construction of a harmonious society. However, they have different positions and significance in the harmonious society. The impartiality is the primary, value of the harmonious society. There is a real order and harmony only on the premise of impartiality. Justice system is the basic way of building a harmonious society. In the building of the harmonious society, two kinds of undesirable tendencies should be avoided ： （ 1 ） harmony and order are equa- ted with conflict and contradiction free, and （2） the harmony is simplified as order or even stability.
