摘　　要：曾经被看作是古代人伦理的美德伦理,在英语世界,经过几十年的复兴,不仅可与在近代世界占统治地位的道义论和功用论并驾齐驱,甚至有压倒后者的趋势。有鉴于此,不少做中西比较哲学的学者也努力论证儒家伦理实际上是一种美德伦理。这固然有意义,但更重要的是,如果我们真的觉得美德伦理具有优越性,我们应该看古代儒家思想对当代美德伦理的发展能够作出什么贡献。这包括儒家是否能够帮助当代美德伦理有效地回应外来的批评,帮助当代美德伦理克服其自身存在的一些问题,帮助当代美德伦理对当代哲学的相关领域作出有效贡献。事实上,儒家在这三个方面都大有可为。In the English-speaking world,with its revival in the last few decades,virtue ethics,which has been regarded as an ethics for the ancient,has not only become an equal with deontology and utilitarianism,which have dominated modern philosophy,but has even acquired a momentum to surpass them.In this context,it s natural that many scholars doing comparative studies of Chinese and Western philosophy have argued that Confucian ethics is also a virtue ethics.While interesting,it is more important to see whether Confucianism can make some significant contribution to the development of contemporary virtue ethics,especially if we share the conviction that virtue ethics is superior to its two main rivals.Confucian contribution may involve responding to the external objections to contemporary virtue ethics,addressing its internal difficulties,and making unique contribution to other areas of philosophy from the virtue ethics point of view.Indeed,Confucianism has both a great potential and rich resources in all these three areas.
