基于“信任”理论视角下的“好社会”建设

Building “Good Society”on the Basis of “Trust”Theory

"好社会"这一概念的提出在当代中国有其独特的背景,如何建设一个"好社会"也是摆在中国当下的重要任务。好社会理论立足于经济自足和个体自由,旨在建立一个经济上强大、所有人都有机会实现自己抱负的现实的社会。在经济全球化和政治民主化的现时代,好社会要求处理好"个体自由"和"共同体"的关系,使个人和国家在社会层面达成契合,而信任理论可以为"好社会"建设提供一个很好的视角,它超验和经验性兼备,能降低社会交易成本,将国家、社会和个人紧密粘合,实现合力最大化,从而推动社会朝着"好的"方向发展。

The proposal of ＂good society＂ concept has its unique background in contemporary China. How to build a ＂good society ＂ is a priority mission for today＇s China. The ＂good society＂ theory is based on economic self-sufficiency and individual freedom, aimed at establishing a real and economically strong society where all people have the opportunity to re- alize their ambitions. In the current era of economic globalization and political democratization, good society requires the balance between ＂individual freedom＂ and ＂ community＂, so that the individual and the state can reach agreement on the social level. Trust theory can provide a satisfactory perspective for the building of ＂good society＂, because it is both tran- scendental and empirical, and is capable of reducing social transaction costs, binding the state, society and individual to- gether to maximize synergy and to drive the society for the better.
