经济伦理视域中的节约型社会建设

节约是人类传统的美德,提倡节约不仅体现了对人们劳动的尊重,而且也反映了人们的道德品质,倡导节约在社会生产和社会生活中具有极其重要的作用。以往人们主张通过刺激消费的手段来促进经济发展,忽视了节约品德的经济价值和伦理价值,经济伦理学为我们正确处理好节约与发展的关系提供了全新的视角。我国人口众多,人均资源占有量严重不足,弘扬节约这一传统美德对我国社会主义现代化建设具有特别重要的意义。

Building a resource-efficient society under guidance of economic ethics

Thriftiness is a traditional virtue of human beings. The advocate of thriftiness not only reflects the respect for people’s work but also reflects people’s morality,thus having an extremely important play in social production and social life. In the past the method of stimulating consumption was regarded useful to promote the economic development,which neglected the economic value and ethics value of thriftiness. The economic ethics provides a brand-new perspective for dealing the relation between thriftiness and development. As China is a country with a large population and seriously insufficient per capita natural resources, it is of great significance to promote this traditional virtue of thriftiness for building her socialist modernization.
