Abstract

The golden rule says: ‘Treat others as you want to be treated’. This article organizes contemporary interpretations of the rule into three groups: the ‘material’ golden rule, the ‘relativistic’ golden rule, and the ‘formal’ golden rule. The article also argues that (a) the relativistic golden rule is the weakest, (b) the formal golden rule is virtually irrefutable, (c) the material golden rule is less evident than the formal one, but not necessarily false and (d) the formal golden rule and the material golden rule are not incompatible—they can complement each other. This assumes that the substantive assumptions of the material golden rule are real.

哪条道德金科玉律？

金科玉律说："己所不欲，勿施于人"。本文将当代对该规则的解释分为三类："物质 "黄金法则、"相对 "黄金法则和 "形式 "黄金法则。文章还认为：(a) 相对金科玉律最弱；(b) 形式金科玉律几乎无可辩驳；(c) 物质金科玉律不如形式金科玉律明显，但不一定是错误的；(d) 形式金科玉律和物质金科玉律并非互不相容--它们可以相辅相成。这就假定了实质金科玉律的实质性假设是真实的。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Human Values is a peer-reviewed tri-annual journal devoted to research on values. Communicating across manifold knowledge traditions and geographies, it presents cutting-edge scholarship on the study of values encompassing a wide range of disciplines in the humanities and social sciences. Reading values broadly, the journal seeks to encourage and foster a meaningful conversation among scholars for whom values are no esoteric resources to be archived uncritically from the past. Moving beyond cultural boundaries, the Journal looks at values as something that animates the contemporary in its myriad manifestations: politics and public affairs, business and corporations, global institutions and local organisations, and the personal and the private.
