以人为本重构中国家庭伦理

中国传统家庭伦理是“以家为本”,随着中国现代化进程的深入,传统家庭伦理中的基本面已经与现实的家庭伦理生活产生了不可调和的矛盾,既不能有效地引导和规范人们的现代家庭生活,也不能为中国社会的现代化目标提供相应的伦理依据,在某种程度上甚至拖了中国现代化的后腿。只有用“以人为本”的新伦理代替“以家为本”的旧伦理,与中国社会现代化目标相适应的家庭伦理才能构建起来。

Taking Person as the Foundation of the Reconstrucition of Chinese Family Ethics

For Chinese traditional theory of family ethics,family itself,not its members,is looked as the foundation of life.But,in modern society,this theory is getting into trouble,it can neither point out the correct way for Chinese family life,nor provide a reasonable basis for the modernization of Chinese society.Therefore,the old theory of family ethics which looks family as its base,should be replaced by a new one which looks man--family members--as its base,in order to fit for the goal of Chinese society--the modernization.
