摘　　要：道德资本也是一个重要的经济学范畴,因此可以从经济学角度对其合理内涵加以揭示。探究道德资本应该坚持经济学思想史上由来已久的广义资本观。广义资本观的立足点就是“创造社会财富的能力”这一资本的一般属性。作为资本的存在首先应该是一种资源,道德与法律一样构成社会经济制度的重要部分,制度就是一种资源,而且道德还是在运行有序和发展有效的社会经济生产总过程、交易过程中必不可少的并且带来巨大经济效率的资本资源。同时,由于在信息不完备和有限理性的交易过程和生产总过程中,道德能够作为一种约束而降低道德风险、减少机会主义行为的发生,并进而提高资源配置的效率、促进社会经济的发展和财富创造,因此道德有理由成为广义资本的重要组成部分。Moral capital is also an important economic category, so its rational intension can be revealed in terms of economics. Explorations into moral capital should stick to the long- standing view of capital in a broad sense in the history of economics. The foothold of the view is the “ ability to create social wealth” , a general attribute of capital. Moral capital existing as capital, above all, should be a kind of resource. Morals form an important part of the social economic system as laws do. The system is a kind of resource, and morals are the capital resource that can bring about high economic efficiency and that are essential in the orderly and effective general economic production and transaction. Meanwhile, since in the general process of economic production and transaction with insufficient information and limited ration morals, as a restraint, can reduce moral risks and opportunist behavior, and then enhance the efficiency of resource allocation, promote social economic growth and wealth creation, it is reasonable that morals are viewed as an important part of capital in a broad sense.
