亚当·斯密的自然正义与德性正义

作为商业社会的首席辩护人,斯密因其正义论给商业社会的秩序来源确立了合法性而广受关注。尽管如此,学界尚未就其正义论的内涵达成一致。回到斯密的道德理论可以为此提供解答。斯密的道德理论秉承苏格兰学派以情感作为道德判断依据的传统,区分了合宜性和德性两个判断标准。体现在正义论上,就表现为自然正义与德性正义的二重奏。斯密虽然把基于交换正义的社会秩序理论视为最重要的工作,但他从未忽视德性之于一个美好社会的重要性,并一直以此来指引自己构建社会理论。斯密的正义论,不论是自然正义部分还是德性正义部分,对于理解当今中国的社会转型进而实现善治而言,皆极富启发意义。     

虔敬与正义

游叙弗伦关于虔敬的定义一般被认为是不成功的。很多学者把他归为一个无知的宗教狂热者,也把他的伦理学思想界定为一种神意论的,即以神意为道德奠基的立场。本文则认为游叙弗伦在立场上是接近苏格拉底的。虽然他强调神意对于道德生活的重要性,但他始终围绕着正义来界定虔敬,这与苏格拉底的立场是一致的。     

人为德性与文明社会的秩序构建——对休谟正义理论的辩护性阐释

休谟的正义理论是克服现代个体自爱与社会性之间系统张力的重要理论努力,但这一理论一直面临一项质疑:正义作为人为德性,其"德性"面相与"人为"面相存在内在矛盾.针对道德心理机制和人为秩序构建过程的细致分析表明,一方面,休谟的德性理论重视行动后果,主张对行动后果的同情是道德评价的出发点,能够为服务于功利后果的人为制作赋予道德尊严;另一方面,休谟的人为秩序构建理论强调动态过程,在小型社会到大型文明社会的演化中,开明自利的自然动机和正义感的道德动机相互配合发挥作用."德性论"与"人为论"彼此支持,共同奠定了大型文明社会的正义秩序.     

工作与德性

在社会公共生活日益扩张的今天,工作伦理成为社会价值的源点。工作伦理因其可操作性的践行力,命令性的强制力和广泛的辐射力使其强化了员工的责任意识、营造了良好的社会道德环境并改变着员工的道德思维、养成着良好的德性修养。加强工作伦理建设是社会道德改善的最有效途径。     

培育反偏见德性是对抗认知不正义的有效策略吗

认知不正义源于不平等权力结构及由此产生的系统性偏见,不仅错失知识,而且贬抑人性。为了对抗认知不正义,弗里克要求听者培养并运用反偏见德性以辨识并化解偏见对可信度判断造成的负面影响。然而,这一方案存在一系列问题。首先,反偏见德性的概念应用于日常实践时,面临稳定性与合理性不足的问题;其次,弗里克对反偏见德性运作方式的解释,存在循环论证问题;最后,当主体试图反思与纠偏时,存在标准缺失的问题。因此,个体的德性实践并非认知不正义最有效的反制策略。除了培育个体的理智德性,最终仍需通过培育集体知识自信、推动社会政治改革等途径来消弭认知不正义。     

略论制度伦理与德性伦理的关系

制度伦理的核心是伦理 ,其对德性伦理起作用的方式也应该是制度中的伦理因素而不是强制性规范。制度伦理以其内涵的伦理精神以及作为一种社会存在来影响个人德性。制度伦理与德性伦理相互作用并相互转化     

化德性为规范:西方的理论尝试及其批评

德性伦理学是古希腊伦理学的传统.但自近代以来,德性伦理学先后发生了两次规范化运动.一次是以功利主义和康德伦理学为代表的规范伦理学取代了德性伦理学的主导地位;一次是20世纪50年代以来兴起的德性伦理学复归运动中,德性伦理学内部阵营中出现的规范化的理论动向.德性伦理学的两次规范化运动都不可避免地面临着理论上的批评.德性伦理规范化引致的理论思考是:在现代社会中,德性伦理是否必要,如何可能.     

德性与伦理规范刍议

道德都是历史的、具体的,但并不意味着人类不存在某种道德的普适性,也不表明当今社会毋须对普适伦理的寻求.康德的道德既是德性又是规范性;既是道德主体之自觉,又含有道德本体之意味,两者是内在统一的.然而,西方社会因历来政治、法律重于伦理道德,更多的表现为外在的规范伦理.中国传统伦理思想与之不同,是以内在规范和道德自觉之统一为其特征.传统的规范性道德理论,面临现代社会纷繁复杂的价值观和道德无序的局面,已无能为力.德性伦理的复兴,并不排斥伦理规范,而是要在新的历史条件下化外在规范为内在规范,使德性和规范在更高的层面得到内在统一.     

当代托马斯·阿奎那德性伦理研究的视阈

20世纪八九十年代以来,随着麦金太尔等人对德性伦理的复兴,托马斯.阿奎那的德性伦理作为西方中古时代德性伦理的一大传统受到了学术界的瞩目。鉴于阿奎那德性伦理的神哲学渊源和当代复兴背景,对它的研究应当基于西方德性伦理发展的历史脉络、神学背景和形而上架构以及当代德性伦理复兴这三个视阈,通过这三个视阈的综合或交融,阿奎那德性伦理的理论渊源、神学旨趣以及当代意义得以澄清和展现。     

美式反恐战略给无辜者带来的道德伤害

恐怖主义是全人类的共同敌人。在美国主导国际社会反恐话语权的宏观背景下,美式反恐战略在美国国内造就了一个放弃“美国价值”的美国;在国际社会,给无数无辜者带来了巨大的道德伤害。其对人类社会伦理秩序破坏所造成的损害尚无法评估。     

正义的战争与战争的正义——关于战争伦理的反思

战争可以定义为两个或两个以上的国家间的有组织的政治暴力。根据战争的目的、过程和结果,战争伦理大致包括“战争权利伦理”、“战争行为伦理”和“战争责任伦理”三个方面。在战争伦理中最重要的是所谓“正义”问题。“正义”与“非正义”这对概念并非规定战争的客观性质,而是一种煽动人们拥战或反战热情的主观态度和伦理立场的表达。     

Visions of the future: social processes and terrorism in Europe1

Abstract: When we think of terrorism, we tend to think of Islamic terrorism but in fact most of the violent happenings in our societies are caused by ‘domestic terrorism’ and it has been suggested by authors such as Twemlow that there is a developmental continuum between social activism and terrorism. The generalized rise in what the author terms ‘a terrorist worldview’ has been linked to many different social, political, economic and psychological conflicts but the present paper suggests that this is not sufficient and that in order to understand it it is necessary to take into consideration certain processes in contemporary civilization. At present, I am suggesting that Western civilization is characterized by the generalized breakdown of values and of signifying structures and by the gradual weakening of the models of state power and institutions that previously guaranteed the unity and security of our societies. The result is a crisis of identity which is particularly evident among the youth of today and when this is exasperated by the failure of authority to provide an adequate explanatory system of contemporary reality and by the tendency to resort to repressive mechanisms, all too often the result is the degeneration of social activism into social violence. It is becoming urgent that our societies reflect on more efficient ways of preventing social activism degenerating into terrorism, both internationally and domestically.     

Rawls and Ricoeur: Converging Notions of Empowerment to Justice

Empowerment is a key word in Catherine Audard’s new book on Rawls and a central characteristic of Rawls’ approach to justice. A very different “hermeneutic” approach to justice is presented by Paul Ricoeur, the French philosopher and theologian who, against the background of his own work, examined Rawls’ views in several publications. This essay compares the two views and defends the proposition that empowerment is the common denominator. The author suggests that Rawls would not have objected to including some of Ricoeur’s ideas in the past-principle stage of his Theory.

几种策略选择模型的发展轨迹与比较

策略选择作为儿童认知发展的重要方面,日益受到人们的关注.20世纪70年代后,一些研究者相继构建出几种策略选择的理论模型,以说明儿童策略选择的过程及其机制.文章根据策略模型发展的历程,对元认知模型、联结分布模型、适应性策略选择模型和策略选择与发现模型进行了概述与比较,以摸清策略模型发展的轨迹与特点,由此进一步明确策略模型研究发展的方向.     

公平与效率的辩证结合:中国社会发展的价值选择

公平与效率是社会发展中的基本矛盾,二者的结合机制反映了不同社会的发展特征及其基本价值取向。资本主义以资本增值为根本逻辑,坚持以物（资本）为中心的社会发展理念,形成了公平与效率的尖锐对立;社会主义坚持以人为中心的社会发展理念,能在社会发展中历史地实现公平与效率的辩证结合。中国在改革开放的探索中,在处理公平与效率的关系上不断进行调整,这既反映了中国社会发展观随着历史发展而不断进行的变革,更折射和体现了中国社会发展的根本价值选择。     

Recognition and Social Justice: A Roman Catholic View of Christian Bioethics of Long-Term Care and Community Service

Contemporary Christian ethics encounters the challenge to communicategenuinely Christian normative orientations within the scientificdebate in such a way as to render these orientations comprehensible,and to maintain or enhance their plausibility even for non-Christians.This essay, therefore, proceeds from a biblical motif, takesup certain themes from the Christian tradition (in particularthe idea of social justice), and connects both with a compellingcontemporary approach to ethics by secular moral philosophy,i.e. with Axel Honneth's reception of Hegel, as based on Hegel'stheory of recognition. As a first step, elements of an ethicsof recognition are developed on the basis of an anthropologicalrecourse to the conditions of intersubjective encounters. Theseconditions are then brought to bear on the idea of social justice,as developed in the social-Catholic tradition, and as systematicallyexplored in the Pastoral Letter of the United States Conferenceof Catholic Bishops, Economic Justice For All (1986). Proceedingfrom this basis, aspects of a Christian ethics of communityservice with regard to long-term care can be defined.     

楚竹书《孔子诗论》“类序”辨析

通过对楚竹书《孔子诗论》的分析,结合对《诗经》文本形成过程的探讨,得出《诗经》之部类及其类序为《风》、《小雅》、《大雅》、《颂》的结论,同时厘清孔子、《孔子诗论》和《毛诗》在文本方面的关系。《诗经》的结集经历了一个过程,其分类由来已久;未曾更改。《诗》“类序”的形成也具有一定的历史性,是在《诗》文本编辑过程中自然形成的。孔子在整理《诗经》的过程中并不存在一个前提性的“编序”原则,所谓孔子“删诗”,只是对诗篇做些必要的一般性古籍整理而已。至于出土文献《孔子诗论》中偶尔出现的颠倒《诗》“类序”的论述亦属正常,并不能说明孔子曾编有与传统《诗》“类序”相反的文本,也不能否定《毛诗》文本具有一定的历史延续性,更不能由此说明《孔子诗论》中出现“类序颠倒”具有更为不可测知的寓意。     

Governance Processes and Change Within Organizational Participants of Multi-sectoral Community Health Care Alliances: The Mediating Role of Vision,Mission, Strategy Agreement and Perceived Alliance Value

Multi-sectoral community health care alliances are organizations that bring together individuals and organizations from different industry sectors to work collaboratively on improving the health and health care in local communities. Long-term success and sustainability of alliances are dependent on their ability to galvanize participants to take action within their ‘home’ organizations and institutionalize the vision, goals, and programs within participating organizations and the broader community. The purpose of this study was to investigate two mechanisms by which alliance leadership and management processes may promote such changes within organizations participating in alliances. The findings of the study suggest that, despite modest levels of change undertaken by participating organizations, more positive perceptions of alliance leadership, decision making, and conflict management were associated with a greater likelihood of participating organizations making changes as a result of their participation in the alliance, in part by promoting greater vision, mission, and strategy agreement and higher levels of perceived value. Leadership processes had a stronger relationship with change within participating organizations than decision-making style and conflict management processes. Open-ended responses by participants indicated that participating organizations most often incorporated new measures or goals into their existing portfolio of strategic plans and activities in response to alliance participation.     

论翻译的技巧、理想、标准及其形成过程--兼析作为《论不可译性》之理论前提的康德先验哲学观

怎样才能提升翻译研究的理论水平?进行翻译理论研究是不是必须诉诸康德的先验哲学框架?本文认为,作为王宾教授所谓“不可译性”之理论前提的康德哲学“经验VS先验”的基本观点,其实并不适合于进行翻译理论研究;实际上,这里的根本问题是“翻译的实际经验性行为”与“翻译标准”之间的关系。只有从我自己构建并逐渐完善的社会个体生成论的角度出发,把翻译研究所涉及的历时性维度与共时性维度有机结合起来,正确处理翻译技巧、翻译理想和翻译标准之间的关系,我们才能正确地认识“翻译标准”及其形成过程,从而使之发挥适当的作用,达到逐步提高翻译理论研究水平的目的。     

A comparison of monocular and binocular depth perception in 5- and 7-month-old infants

Monocular depth perception was compared with binocular depth perception in 5- and 7-month-old infants. Reaching was used as the dependent measure. Two objects, identical except in size, were presented simultaneously to each infant. The smaller object was within reach for the infants while the larger object was just beyond reach. The two objects subtended equal visual angles from the infants' observation point. With binocular presentation, 96% of the 7-month-olds' reaches and 89% of the 5-month-olds' reaches were for the nearer object. With monocular presentation, 58% of the 7-month-olds' reaches and 65% of the 5-month-olds' reaches were for the nearer object. The reaching preferences observed in the monocular condition indicated sensitivity to monocular depth information (motion parallax, accommodation, and relative size information were available). Binocular viewing, however, resulted in a far more consistent tendency to reach for the nearer object. This result suggests that the infants' perception of the objects' distances was more veridical in the binocular condition than in the monocular condition.
