自然秩序的伦理化——略论孔子的社会和谐理想

The Ethicization of Natural Order: Confucius' Ideal of Harmonious Society

先秦时期的孔子通过"大同世界"的描述,表达了他对于社会和谐秩序的理想。他以家庭和谐的建立为出发点,对父子关系、夫妇关系、兄弟关系进行了伦理规范;接下来,将这种规范进行合理外扩,构建出社会一般交往原则和方法;最后,将前两者结合并推广,构建出整个国家和社会的和谐。在这一过程中,孔子将血缘关系作为社会关系的前提,将人伦亲情作为社会道德的基础,将自然秩序进行社会伦理转化,从而实现和谐状态。

In the pre-Qin period, Confucius described ＂Datong World＂ to formulate his dream of ＂Harmonious Society＂. He began with building the harmonious family, and then, the harmonious social relationship, at last, a harmonious country. Confucius tried to find the enlightenment from natural order over human norms. He imagined the kinship as a prerequisite to the social relationship,the family love as a prerequisite to the moral feelings,so as to achieve his harmony dream.
