摘要
伦理与道德两个概念的内涵及其相互关系在许多研究者那里是比较模糊的。本文试图从词源学的角度并结合黑格尔在《法哲学原理》中的相应观点对二者的内涵加以区别界定并对二者的关系加以厘定:道德是个体对自身完满性的价值追求,具有主体性与私人性;而伦理则是基于社会成员之间的互动交往而形成的规范体系,具有“互主体性”与公共性。道德是伦理的基础,伦理是道德的提升。笔者认为,对伦理与道德加以区分和厘定将有助于伦理冲突的化解、伦理关系的协调以及伦理秩序的维护。
The concept of ethic and that of morality are often used by many scholars in umbiguously, so this thesis is intended for a distinction between them. Generally speaking, morality reflects individual pursuit of value in his integrity, so it has a subjective and private character. The concept of ethic reflects the normative relations between social members, so it is characterized by relativity and publicity. Morality is the basis for ethic, while ethic is the improvement on morality. To distinguish between the two concepts is necessary and important.
