法律诚信与道德诚信辨析

Differentiate and analyze law honesty and moral honesty

道德诚信是指作为道德准则的诚信 ,要求人们言语真实、恪守诺言 ,强调的是行为人的操守和自律 ;而法律诚信作为一项法律原则 ,是指当代各国在法律上尤其是在私法上普遍规定的诚实信用原则 ,它强调的是规范与监督。违反道德而失信于人 ,可能会遭受舆论的谴责和良心的诘问。法律诚信和道德诚信并非同一范畴 ,研究分析诚信问题的时候不可简单地将二者混为一谈。我国市场经济中诚信缺失问题日益突出 ,道德诚信的基础不断被削弱。对诚信的期望已不能再仅停留在道德层面 ,而应该提升到法律层面去构想。解决诚信缺失问题的关键不是道德诚信的再教化 ,而是建立、健全一套市场经济法律规则 ,通过国家强制力来保证市场经济秩序 ,并进而建立起人们对法律诚信乃至法律的信仰。

Moral honesty is a moral criterion, which asks people to be honest and self-discipline. While law honesty is a common law principle of most modern countries. There are many differences between moral honesty and law honesty. Now honest crisis has appeared in our market economy, and moral honesty has been weakened. The most important thing to solve the problem is to set up a suit of perfect law rules to keep the order in the market, and then establish the faith to law honesty and law in people's heart.
