Development as the characterization of human self-realization and value dimension of social Community self-built, has become one of the major themes of the times in today's world, and is the common goal that all mankind pursuit. Facts have proved that, the "development" of human society in modern times in terms of speed or scale of any previous era are second to none, but this mode of growth and development is really desired? Reality shows that, this rejection of the evaluation of value and "development" of ethical norms brings the global development crisis. In the face of the ethical dilemma that human development mode brings, "the development ethics" came into being. The development ethics commits to follow up the value and significance of development, and thinks the development is to enhance all individuals and the full humanity of all societies.In 1998 Amartya·Sen who gained Nobel Prize in Economics was hailed as "the conscience of Economics", as an economist concerned about the problem of poverty and social fate of vulnerable groups, Sen's development ethics is the revolution to the "non-ethical" paradigm of modern mainstream economics and the reversion to the ethical tradition of classical economics, and is directly opposed to the growth development of mainstream, and advocates the freedom and harmonious development of human society. On the basis of criticizing the mainstream theory such as utilitarianism, Rawls's on justice, Nozick's freedom supremacy and so on,Sen constructs a " evaluation method of feasible competence" ,the nature of feasible competence is to have reasons to value the real freedom of life. Sen's development ethics looks feasible competence as the core concept and community of value, the real freedom of feasible competence as the basic criterion for judging the development, has resumed the "human dimension" and "value level" in the internal development, re-establishes the value dimension of the development, is a "real concept of freedom","equal concept of feasible competence "and "people-oriented" concept of development. At the same time, as the value dimension of Sen's development ethics, The feasible competence also highlights the deep concerns to social bottom of poverty and vulnerable groups.This article takes Amartya·Sen's development ethics under "feasible competence" linguistic environment as research angle of view, elaborates systematically basic dimension and value connotation of development as theory premise, through criticizing utilitarianism, Rawls's on justice, Nozick's freedom supremacy, then it discusses theory characteristic of "feasible competence" this value dimension, In addition it aims at the limitation of "feasible competence" and has also made the essential discussion. Based on it, it demonstrates comprehensively Sen's development ethics under "feasible competence" linguistic environment view, and it returns the theory to the Chinese question territory, excavates thoroughly the practice direction of Sen's development ethics, and discusses the consideration that "feasible competence" to social vulnerable groups of our country in transition period.
