文野之别:现代伦理何以可能成为人类文明之道

The Difference Between Civilization and Barbarism:How Can Modern Ethics Become the Way of Human Civllization?

现代伦理在人类世俗化生活世界中以普遍的人性、自然法、个体自由、科学理性和公益与私益的权利为基础,才真正表达了现代人道义实存的方式,从而成为普遍文明的方向。但无论人文主义运动、宗教改革运动还是启蒙运动,都在弘扬一种道义,从而将这种特殊道义上升为“唯一”伦理基础,在成为“定言命令”进程中也同时导致了文化的野蛮化甚至普遍的战争,这是伦理善的一种自身隐匿性。伦理的文野之别,是善的规范有效性与自身隐匿性不可避免地造成的现象。如何解决这一矛盾,是伦理学史为人类文明发展提出的严峻问题。

Modern ethics can truly express the way of moral existentialism on the basis of universal human nature,natural law,individual freedom,scientific rationality and the rights of public and private interests in the world of human secularized life,and thus become the direction of universal civilization.However,no matter the humanism movement,the religious reform movement and the Enlightenment movement,they all promote a kind of morality,thus elevating this special morality to the“only”ethical basis,and in the process of becoming the“order of the word”,they all lead to the barbarism of culture and even the common war,which is a kind of self-concealing of ethical good.The difference between civilization and barbarism of ethics is a phenomenon inevitably caused by the normative validity of good and its self-concealment.How to solve this contradiction is a serious problem proposed by the history of ethics for the development of human civilization.
