The issue of "the ethics of state" is not only a realistic state politics,but also a kind of politic ethics question.We think of "the ethics of state" is a typical politic ethics mode that from human politic society began on,because the state which is the unique politic model will dominate human society a long time by a dominant position.The politic ethics pays close attention on political phenomenon,it focuses on the quality,characters,merit,badness of regime an or political power and why and how they generated."the ethics of state" is one of core ideas of politic ethics,the situation of "the ethics of state" reflects the good or evil of this county's regime an or political power,as well as reflects the moral impact of the country's politic establishment."the ethics of state" came from the generation of state,today "nation-state" have been a mainstream regime,the rationality,justifiability and "influence on other country" of "the ethics of state" have became a critical issue of state politic ethics."The ethics of state" is a complicated problem,we try to reveal the generation, "propagation",operating mechanism of "the ethics of state" which have been affected by "moral superiority" in two ways:one is theoretical construct;The other is political practice.We think of that "the ethics of state" and "moral superiority" constitute a tangled issue together,its realistic manifestation or instance is that "heretic thinking pattern","Occidentalism" and compartmentalization of so called "civilized nations" and "barbarous nations".This tangled issue manifest that "the ethics of state" strays into the path of "moral superiority" while it pursue "moral virtue",to a certain extent,the matter is that this "strays into" is inevasible in term politics.Our prime task is coping with this "inevitability".Finally,we believe that solve this"tangled issue" is not simple,neither the methods of optimism nor pessimism,because people,society,states,world are objectively real and realistic. The "moral superiority" of "the ethics of state" could make the politic ethics of state lost its "empathic concern" and politic virtues,and then fall into becoming political tools and political propaganda,ruling or governing technique,all of them induce "the ethics of state" to become illusory "Utopia".In fact,human society is keep resist "Utopia" of "the ethics of state",human society and states is just here that get ethic vitality,hope,good and moral virtue.Though we bring up some method against "moral superiority" and "Utopia" of "the ethics of state",we just lead up to new issue areas;we should know that the solving of this "tangled issue" belongs to the historical development of human states instead of human's theoretical construct.
