摘　　要：对当代社会道德问题的分析,必须深入到现代性理念与实践中。现代性充满道德悖论,它既带来了道德进步,也使现代人陷入无法摆脱的道德困境。现代性反思、现代性批判不是否定现代性,而是既要让现代性的理念更为普遍地被接受,又要让现代性的缺陷得到最大程度的弥补,使其更好地服务于人类社会的良善运行。For the analysis of contemporary social moral problems, we must go deep into the theory and practice of modernity. Modernity contains a moral paradox. It has not only advanced the moral progress, but has also led to a moral dilemma. Its narrative of liberation has made human society confident of moral progress, but the excessive negation to tradition has resulted in the collapse of the progressive myth. It has formed independent and free individuals, but has also produced extreme individualism and fragmentation of social order. It has laid a solid material and intellectual foundation for moral progress, but has also made the ethical power declining and eventually made it subject to the capital. It has helped democratic ideal and institution win over the people, but has also brought the evil of totalitarianism. It has realized religious disenchantment and brought the recession of theological beliefs, but has also made belief crisis becoming a common social psychological problem. The supremacy of scientific and technological rationality has determined that the construction of universal moral norm is the direction of ethics, but the effort is doomed to fail because of the ignorance of the realistic goals. The critique of modernity is not the negation of modernity, but the making up of the defects of modernity, so that it can serve human society better.
