论西方市场经济伦理理性的形成

伦理理性是经济方式运行的深层文化基础,自然经济、市场经济、计划经济具有不同的伦理理性。当今经济转轨中,大量出现的“道德失衡”现象说明计划经济的伦理理性与市场经济伦理理性存在着尖锐的冲突,无法对市场经济主体进行有效规约,因此,探索西方市场经济伦理理性的形成,揭示西方思想家对基督教伦理的理性化改造、契约化改造、法制化改造、政治化改造和市场化改造历程,对于建构社会主义市场经济模式赖以有效运行的伦理理性基础具有重要的借鉴意义。

On forming of ethical rationality of western market economy

Ethical rationality is the profound cultural foundation in which economic model moves. Natural economy, market economy and planned economy have their own different rationality. In the turning of economic models, the phenomenon of "morality unbalance" reveals the sharp conflict between planned economy rationality and market economy rationality. It is difficult to stipulate the economic entities with planned economic rationality. Hence, it will be quite beneficial for the forming of the ethical rationality of socialistic market economy to explore the forming of ethical rationality of western market economy and to reveal the reforming course of Christian ethical rationality, in which western thinkers make it legal, political and rational .
