In the 21 st century,economy,science and society are developing rapidly,but a series of ethical problems such as social fracture and lack of moral spirit have also occurred.In the face of this uncertain era,Edgar Moran broke the traditional ethical thinking and put forward the ethical thinking of individual-society-species connection.This ethical thought originated in a certain era background and has rich content and important significance.1.The origin of Moran’s ethical thoughts.Mankind has entered a dangerous period with many uncertain factors.At the same time,mankind is facing various problems such as war,terrorism,social disintegration caused by technological development,and moral decline.In such a complicated era,it is necessary to break the traditional ethical thoughts.Moran borrowed from the innovation of Western humanities and social sciences,combined deontology and utilitarianism,put people first,and put forward his connected ethical thoughts.2.The main content of Moran’s ethical thoughts.First,ethics is a subjective requirement.When ethics is presented as a kind of moral law,it embodies human nature and regulates the relationship between human and society in a connected manner,so that personal moral consciousness is deepened in the generalization of ethics.Second,ethics is a connection relationship.Ethics is the connection to life.The universe created humans through separation and aggregation,and humans are connected through mutual assistance,fraternity,friendship and love,and they are endless.Ethics is also a link to cognition,which not only exists in epistemology,but also mobilizes cognition through knowledge ethics.Third,the ethical point of view is uncertain.This uncertainty is manifested in the uncertainty of the relationship between ends and means,as well as the contradictions and illusions that exist in ethics itself.3.The concrete embodiment of Moran’s ethical thoughts.First,from the perspective of the individual,self-ethics is strengthened through the advancement of individualism and the advancement of understanding ethics.Second,from a social perspective,we should attach importance to social ethics,improve international relations,and form public ethics applicable to human society.Third,from the species level,use ethical thinking to solve the current lack of democracy and ecological damage,so as to build a better future that is more suitable for human development.4.Moran’s ethical thought is of great significance.On the one hand,it promotes the development of ethics,realizes the combination of deontology and utilitarianism,and proposes a new idea of linking ethics.On the other hand,it can help us establish an effective mechanism for ethical connection,deepen the connotation of altruistic ethics,understanding ethics,fraternity ethics and human ethics,thereby promoting the construction of a fair and just society,so that we have the consciousness of a community of destiny,and better Form the connection ethics of individual-society-species.
