论中国情理主义道德哲学传统的传承与创新

On the Inheritance and Innovation of the Tradition of Chinese Emotional-rational Moral Philosophy

中国情理主义道德哲学传统不仅在过去沉淀为中华民族独特的精神标识,而且也涵育了中华文明独特的精神气质:彰显道德崇高性的克己精神;爱之情与伦之理辩证统一的仁爱精神;通情达理、有情有义的道德品格。然而,在现代社会的变革中,中国情理主义道德哲学作为一种传统,遭遇到一系列阵痛:克己精神的超功利性与市场经济逐利性之间的激烈碰撞;传统仁爱观的封闭式道德自治模式与现代社会开放性特征之间的冲突;现代陌生人社会对传统情义道德观的强烈阻隔。中国情理主义道德哲学传统要从阵痛中获得新生,应当立足于现实需要,通过传承与创新的动态交互开拓出新的境界,继续为人类当前和未来生活提供重要精神支撑。

In the past,the tradition of Chinese emotional-rational moral philosophy not only became the unique spiritual symbol of the Chinese nation,but also nurtured the unique spiritual temperament of Chinese civilization:the spirit of"self-denial"which shows the moral nobility;the"benevolence"spirit"which unifies dialectically emotion of love and reason of ethics;and the sensible and righteous moral character.However,as a"tradition",it has encountered a series of pains in the reform of modern society:the fierce collision between the"super-utilitarian"spirit of"self-denial"and the"profit-seeking"market economy;the conflict between the closed moral autonomy mode of traditional concept of"benevolence"and the open character of modern society;the strong obstruction of the modern"stranger society"against the traditional sentiment and morality.How to get new life from"labor pains"should be based on the actual needs.We should open up a new realm for the tradition of Chinese emotional-rational moral philosophy through the dynamic interaction of"inheritance"and"innovation",making it continue to provide important spiritual support for the current and future life of human beings.
