Constructing the "New Eight Virtues" of Contemporary Moral Education

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

< p>The eight virtues targeted by this topic: loyalty, filial piety, sincerity, faith, propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame, are intended to take over the traditional Chinese virtues and give them new connotations, embodying the brand-new values of national vitality.

Constructing a new system of morality in the new century, emphasizing the connection with Chinese virtues, is to recognize the historical inheritance of morality, inheritance is the prerequisite for innovation, and continuous innovation is the only way to moral development. Moral education and construction cannot achieve instant results, let alone quick success; to build a new morality, we cannot cut off history, "start from scratch" or "build a new stove". No nation can make a "clean break" with its traditional culture.

The evolution of ancient Chinese moral norms is the "root" and "source" of moral education in contemporary schools. The eight virtues targeted by this project: loyalty, filial piety, sincerity, faith, propriety, righteousness, honesty and shame, are intended to take over the traditional Chinese virtues and give them new connotations, reflecting the new value of national vitality. During the 10 years of experimentation and practice in the education of "Chinese Virtues", through the determination of the system of virtues and the preparation of teaching materials, it has been gradually found that these eight virtues are an important basis for constructing the system of virtues in today's schools, which are not only the traditional Chinese virtues that have been handed down from generation to generation and continuously created, updated and developed by the Chinese nation over the past 5,000 years, but also the traditional Chinese virtues that are the basis for the present-day life of the society. It is not only the traditional Chinese virtues that have been passed down from generation to generation for 5,000 years; it is also the national spirit that permeates the life of today's society, in the "student code" of primary and secondary schools, in the citizen's covenant, in the professional ethics of all walks of life, and in the way of governing the family, the way of business, the way of governing the country. In order to construct a moral system of traditional virtues in schools, and to help teachers and educators participating in educational experiments to understand the historical evolution of the Eight Virtues, to grasp and distinguish the duality between the essence and the dregs of the Eight Virtues, and to recognize the importance of the Eight Virtues, it is important to understand the importance of the Eight Virtues and to recognize the importance of the Eight Virtues. "They can understand the historical evolution of the Eight Virtues, grasp and distinguish the duality between the essence and the dross of the Eight Virtues, recognize the historical value of the Eight Virtues, explore the response of the Eight Virtues to the moral problems of the modern society, and grasp the paths to enhance their own moral cultivation. In 1999, we spent one year organizing eight doctors who had studied liberal arts to write and publish a series of books called "Popular Morality" by Red Flag Publishing House, with each doctor writing one of the books, which are: "Loyalty - The Duty of Serving the Country", "Filial Piety - The Love that Lives on", "The Love that Lives on", "The Love that Lives on", "The Love that Lives on" and "The Love that Lives on". -Sincerity - the quality of truthfulness and pragmatism", "Faith - the base of establishing oneself and prospering", "Ritual - the civilized norms of human beings", "Righteousness - the civilized norms of human beings", and "Public Morality". norms", "righteousness - the guide to the right way on earth", "integrity - the foundation of innocence and righteousness", "shame - the bottom line of man as a human being". These eight subtitles indicate a modern transformation of traditional morality and cultural innovation.

First of all, spatially, the eight virtues not only cover the social, economic and political fields, but also the moral relationship between the individual, the family and the society. A Chinese person, if you can have these eight virtues in different degrees, is a moral person, not only will not lag behind the times, but also will become the new century of the strong; the whole country, with this moral norms system, can be gradually built in the new century of the "state of etiquette". Today China needs these eight kinds of morality, as long as the people of the country in different degrees with these eight kinds of morality, the whole of China's social morality, there will be a big improvement, a moral nation, a moral country, will show the world in front of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation there is hope.

Secondly, from the point of view of the different functions of each virtue, these eight virtues can be roughly divided into four levels: 1, "righteousness" and "loyalty", not only is the soul of Chinese morality and the spirit of the realm, but also the core of morality, moral self-consciousness, and the goal of moral values. Sincerity" and "trust" are not only moral qualities and moral personalities, but also show the economic value of morality, which are urgently needed by all nationals under the environment of market economy, and are also urgently needed for the continuous standardization and maturity of the market economy. "Li" and "Lian" are not only the external manifestation of the moral quality of the moral subject and the civilized value of morality, but also the external manifestation of the moral conscience and the political value of morality; 4. "Filial Piety" and "shame", is not only the basis of moral emotion and the moving source of moral value, but also the psychological basis of morality and the discrimination and choice of moral value.
