美德实践智慧:美德伦理学的伦理实践立场

Virtue Practices Wisdom:the Ethical Practice of Virtue Ethics

美德伦理学立足于伦理实践的立场,以伦理行为者的美德品质为基础对伦理问题进行诠释。这种诠释伦理问题的做法显现出美德实践智慧的内在诉求,尤其是在伦理共同体中美德伦理学对伦理问题的阐释具有重要的意义。然而,美德伦理学还是受到来自当代功利主义伦理学与规范伦理学的批评,但这些批评是值得商榷的。因为无论是美德伦理学提出的伦理行为者概念,还是对美德品质的论述都展现出美德实践智慧的内在诉求。因此,美德伦理学的美德实践智慧不仅回应了批评者的观点,而且还表明实践智慧是思索伦理问题必须要考虑的。
