Human Sociality of humanity decide the existence of two types of self-serving and altruistic tendencies at the same time,purely self-serving, or purely altruistic, people should not be a realistic option. How self-serving and altruistic antagonism seek unity, and social development of people are facing one of the most important question. In this paper, a market economy and construct a harmonious society for the historical background and current conditions, on the basis of has been learning from the research results, to use of the basic principles of Marxism and dialectical analysis methods, elaborates on two types of self-serving and altruistic tendencies of human nature and the existence of a reasonable existence of conflict between the two, put forward suggestions to solve self-serving and altruistic antagonistic contradictions, self-serving and altruistic achieve a unified way.Under market economic conditions, economic interests are the main principles to follow the primary principle of the survival and development of self-serving people are the objective needs, but also the development of society exist inherent driving force. Only from the self-interests, can the people on digging out the enthusiasm, initiative, creativity, promoting social development process. Although self-serving has its rationality and legitimacy, but the emphasis should be self-serving than the limit, this will definitely have much adverse effects caused by society. Purely self-serving and therefore not conducive to people with long-term development of society, people at the same time must also be self-serving altruism. People are social animals, people or the people most in need, altruistic people are the objective requirements of the survival and development. Economic entities are not only self-interested "economic man", but also there is the ethical requirements of society people. Altruism is not only a means of self-serving, but also the purpose of social development, people are the value of the pursuit of life activities.We need to learn from the Marxist point of view right people understand the meaning of self-serving and altruistic, and a clear distinction between people's self-serving and altruistic main types; people learn from the perspective of a clear self-serving and altruistic people based study; and with the self-serving and altruistic mutual relations, especially its intrinsic unity between the foundation and its reunification specific analysis. Finally, the required combination of the contemporary realities of Chinese society, reveals the self and the reality of the conflict between altruism and to analyze the root causes of conflict, in view of the above analysis of the problem and to explore the root causes and put forward in building a harmonious society, people's self-serving and altruistic achieve a unified way.Self-serving and altruistic relations are antagonistic in a unified, united in opposing the contradictory relationship. Self-serving and altruistic at the root of the conflict between people from conflict of interest, so to resolve this conflict in the simplest, most natural, the most basic way is to reconfigure interests. As long as people recognize that not only infringes upon other people's interests under the condition it be possible to achieve their own interests, interests only through the implementation of others in order to eventually achieve their own interests, namely, altruism is self-serving, self-serving and altruistic nature of the conflict can be resolved. Him self-discipline and coordination of law, in self-interest and altruism in the search for unity of opposition, the key is to make people realize that self-specific must be the premise of altruism and altruism in order to achieve the adoption, at the same time, altruism must be in the implementation of self - basis. At self-serving and altruistic seek confrontation between the two unification, are finally beyond the self-serving and altruistic antagonism realize the harmonious development of a harmonious socialist society the objective requirements.
