经济“良善生活” 何以可能？

现代形态的伦理学面临进退维谷的局面。一方面,走出现代伦理学之困境的出路在应用伦理中;另一方面,面向"生活世界"的应用伦理学面临着实证化和丧失价值理性的危险。经济良善生活的道德论证也面临着困难。本文的思路是:首先回答和解决现代性伦理所面对的生活世界,只有深刻地认识和融入现代性的世界图景,才能为现代人的存在寻获栖居之所——现代人的良善生活;然后再探寻哈贝马斯现代性交往话语的逻辑,以期奠立区别于先验"语用学"的"经济—伦理"生活世界的"良善生活"的可能性。

A Study of the Possibility of Living an "Economically Virtuous Life"

Modern ethics faces a dilemma.On the one hand,one of its solutions relies on applied ethics.On the other hand,applied ethics confronting the "life-world" faces the risk of positivistic orientation and the loss of value rationality.The moral argument for an economically virtuous life also faces difficulty.The paper holds that the life-world of modernistic ethics requires a deep understanding of the actual world of modernity before finding a virtuous life and a proper dwelling place for modern men.It also discusses Habermas’ logic of modernistic discourse and the possibility of establishing a "virtuous life" different from the life-world of "economy-ethics" based on transcendental pragmatics.
