教育的功利性及其超越

Utilitarianism and Its Transcending in Education

西方社会的发展历史经历了从政教合一到政教分离、从重视个体义务到重视个体权利的转变过程,在这个过程中,基于个人权利的自由主义逐渐变成社会发展的基调,功利性彰显,道德约束力式微。在这一历史背景下,从功利、自由和德行三维度视角来审视我国的教育活动,可以发现教育功利性的根源,以及道德在功利性超越方面的作用。

The western world has experienced transitions from combination of religion and political regime to separation of them,from emphasizing individual’s obligations to his or her rights.In this process,liberalism and rights became the tune of the social evolution,and utilitarianism became obvious and moral became weak.From the historical background and utilitarianism,liberty and moral three-dimension perspective,we can find the source of utilitarianism and the way of going beyond it.
