On Education For The Universal Ethics

Morality contains its class nature, but also has the intercommunity. In the view of Marxist ethnics, Morality's class character and intercommunity are dialectical unity. But in moral systems, morality's class character s play a leading role all the time, its intercommunity always keep the subordinate status, in virtue of which morality generally belongs to class, and meanwhile, the traditional social structure is relatively close, morality's intercommunity is not obvious. So the morality's intercommunity was usually neglected even doubted or negated by people. With the coming of globalization era, with the world increasingly open, under such conditions as world shrinking and values pluralizing, facing lots of global problems, human beings need to seek a kind of shared moral language and criterion as the basis for conversation, intercommunion, cooperation for harmonious coexistence.
