论孔子的官德思想及其现实意义

On Confucius' Thought of Official Morality andIts Present Significance

孔子在其官德思想中,把士德、吏德、君德看作统一整体,三者相辅相成共同构建官德的主体。其基本官德思想是:为官以"仁"、为官以"忠"、为官以"德"、为官以"礼"、为官以民、为官以"克己修身"。这是我国古代"德治"的基本精神,深远地影响了古代政治伦理及传统文化道德的形成与发展,对我国当前"反腐倡廉"、坚持把依法治国和以德治国结合起来也具有十分重要的借鉴和启示作用。

In his thought of official morality, Confucius deemed scholar's morality, official's morality, and sovereign's morality to be a united wholeHis basic thought of official morality was that officials should execute their duties with 'benevolence', 'loyalty', 'morality', and 'propriety', take care of people's interest, control oneself, and perfect their own behavior. Such was the basic spirit of China's ancient 'moral reigning'. It also has very important value to be used as reference and revelation for China's present calls of 'fighting corruption and advocating honesty' and 'ruling the country according to laws'.
