China advocates to do within people oriented, that takes the rule of virtue and the rule by law construction parallel principle, but in practice it exists the certain gap. Nowadays, along with the rapid development of science and technology, economy, people's material field can greatly enhance, and human itself is far more than previous dilemma which, due to excessive pursuit of the great wealth of material, and its sense of moral construction has become increasingly weak, facing the practical ethical and moral issues are too cold, drift, an armchair and so many problems. The core idea in the final analysis is one's own construction, namely the autonomy of the will of Kant's ethics and self-discipline; Kant, from the perspective of their own people, he thinks as rational existence the internal have a heart of the free goodness “good will”. This will follow rational appeal, that makes the action of standards in line with the universal moral law. Also for obligation action; therefore, the real moral just is the subject itself to the autonomy of the will and self legislation, rather than discipline; therefore it needs the moral self-discipline. Discussion on the will itself, Aristotle more is in the level of moral practice activities up to talk about, he will be the will and willingness to link, emphasizing the importance of subjective initiative in the moral practice will moral knowledge and practice combined. Augustine is mainly from a religious point of view, the author thinks that a good will is to obey God's arrangement, otherwise is evil. And Hume, Hutcheson, starting from the point of view of human nature, mainly on self will and free will explore, they more talked about will outside function, will indirectly initiative; as Hume believed that the interpretation of the will is in order to better explore the human nature and moral emotion, he thinks will is a kind of to be explored in the activities of the tool. Similarly, Hutchinson said "will" trait is calm, talent decision, our emotions, desires are from it. Rousseau thinks that the abundance of true will is not a free material, position, thus people do whatever they want. On the contrary, it is because people get rid of the bound materials and perceptual desire of slavery, return to nature, like the natural life; it is Kant on Rousseau's nature and freedom concept of inheritance and criticism, not only make the philosophical morphology constructed the height of the field of epistemology, and by questioning the free, i.e., for the faith left site. Kant first analyzed the will. In his view, will can be roughly divided into two kinds of:(1) pure will( good will, free goodness);(2) related to the object will( material will, in relation to perceptual experience). Then on the obligation is discussed. In Kant's opinion, obligation principle reason is due to the action of our guidelines for ethical principles and the moral law is a priori, form, thus has the widespread and objective inevitability. So why is this moral law possible? Key is that we are rational beings, can use the rational self legislation, make the action criterion is objective and inevitable, consistent with the a priori necessity of the moral law, and in the form of performance for the should, different from the natural law of necessity. Kant stand dimensions of self-discipline, criticizes the discipline of traditional ethics principle of freedom, and from the perspective of rational re interpretation of the self-discipline idea of freedom. He also by the will of the self-discipline is a priori, generally, the form of interpretation of the concept of duty in the practice field is essential, natural law and objective principle.
