Ethical Issues In The Current Difficult Employment Situation Of Chinese Women

In present China, one of the realistic problems to be solved is the difficult position in which the female find it hard to get themselves employed. This is an all-new subject in the domain of ethics, and can serve as an important link in building a harmonious society. Therefore, it is necessary and even urgent now to do some research work on the issue. First, this paper is theoretically based on the ethical ideology of Marxism, that is: the ethical principle of Marxist determinism as the cardinal one, the ethical approach of Marxism as the guiding methodology, and Marxist thinking about an all-round improvement for both male and female as the theoretical premise. Second, the theory in Darwinism about co-existence of both sexes provides some use for the paper's reference, while the Taoist doctrine, one of the traditional Chinese ethical thinking for the paper's historical foundation. Specifically speaking, this paper will focus on the Chinese women's difficult position of getting employment resulting from their social status on the whole as well as some deep material, moral and social roots typified by their characters. As an essential part of social productive forces, the Chinese women must stand on their own, and make unremitting efforts to improve themselves. They must constantly raise their social status and closely follow the trend of material development and moral elevation. They must also strive for self-realization and self-transcend, and above all, an all-round self-improvement. So, The Chinese government must accordingly attach great importance to the continuous elevation of women'social status and promote the equality between the sexes in real earnest, and consummate and standardize laws and regulations guaranteeing women's legal rights and interests. Only in this way can the Chinese women change their social status in time, and finally become a stronger competitive force in getting employment.
