德性的原则--现代市场经济构成的重要元素

德性是构成现代市场经济的重要元素之一,可以把它简洁地表述为合理的利益主义.作为利益原则与合理性原则的辩证统一,合理利益主义既是对市场经济奉行的利益、效率至上原则予以的充分认定,因而普遍适用于市场经济活动本身;但它同时又以合理性的要求超越了市场利益、效率至上原则本身有可能引发的利己主义唯利是图的局限,从而现实地反映了道德的利他主义的本性.这一原则的确立,既能够克服有关市场经济道德认知上的片面性,同时也使市场经济道德有了坚实的合乎人性的现实基础.

Morality in modern market economy

Morality, briefly described as a reasonable interest principle, is one of the main factors in the formation of modern market economy nowadays. Reasonable interest principle is a dialectical unity of the interest principle and principle of reasonableness. It fully affirms the principle of market economy that interest and efficiency are supreme. On the other hand, it surpasses the limitations of egoism and profit caused by the principle that market interest and efficiency are supreme. This indicates the nature of moral altruism. The establishment of the reasonable interest principle helps to have a better understanding of the morality of the market economy, and provides a solid, human and realistic basis for the morality of the market economy.
