What are the events of lack of social morality in recent years?

In recent years, many media have reported the lack of social morality. First, in September of 20 13, a female sanitation worker of 17 years old in Linshu county was trampled by her granddaughter of 16 years old, pulled her hair and was beaten in the street. At this time, family ties were broken by violence and morality was brutally collided. It is understood that her father was imprisoned for theft in his early years, and her mother and grandmother often broke out because of money, which may have accumulated more anger, inferiority and aggression.

Second, the report of Yangzi Evening News 20 1 1: My son cried and asked his mother to buy toys, but her mother didn't. The wayward son grabbed his mother by the neck and pulled her hair. The mother blushed and fainted, so she had to give in to her son.

201113 At about 5 pm, Wang Yue, a two-year-old from Foshan, Guangdong Province, was playing in an alley more than 100 meters away from home. An oncoming truck suddenly accelerated, knocked her down and rolled to the bottom of the car, and the right wheel ran over Yue Yue's crotch. The driver stopped the car, stepped on the gas and drove off, and the rear wheel ran over Yue Yue again. Another small container truck came and ran over her leg. Under the tragic circumstances, no one helped the passers-by in the past 18. Xiao Yueyue died of severe brain injury on June 2 1.

On the evening of February 2, 2004, a wounding incident occurred in the emergency department of Shenzhen Children's Hospital. A child's family injured the doctor on duty that day. After the incident, the police found that the perpetrator intentionally hurt others and detained him for three days.

It is understood that the day before the incident, the child was taken to the hospital for examination, and the results showed that it was a virus infection. The first-time doctor prescribed oral medicine for the child. However, around 7 pm on the 2 nd, the couple saw that the child had not improved and returned to the clinic again. "Dr. Zeng, who was on duty at that time, explained that the virus infection cycle was about one week and the fever lasted for about three days. He continued to observe and take medicine, and he also added cold medicine and antipyretic medicine to the children. " Deputy Director Ma said that during the whole process, emergency doctors conducted diagnosis and treatment in full accordance with the diagnosis and treatment norms and patiently explained. The reason why children are not given injections is to prevent the abuse of antibiotics, which is entirely out of consideration for their health, but parents don't understand that doctors are irresponsible to their children. Subsequently, the child's father, Rong, poured the prescription on Dr. Zeng's face and punched the doctor's head and face many times.

Stepping into modern society, "moral conscience" cannot be absent. In modern social governance, political elites and institutional scholars tend to emphasize institutional construction and its functions, which is correct. Without institutions and the rule of law, a country is not a country, but institutional governance is not the only one. While emphasizing the development of external institutional norms, we often ignore the internal spiritual order of modern people.

In the transitional period, people's spiritual order often faces unprecedented challenges. Market economy and modernization bring people a lot of material satisfaction, but also bring some "fragmentation" and "meaningless feeling" of spiritual order. Personal sense of meaninglessness, no sense of belonging, no sense of identity and loneliness are the mental and psychological states of many modern people.

Ge, a professor at the Research Center for Ethical Construction of Renmin University of China, raised three questions in the history of ethical thought: What is a good life? What should we do for a better life? What should a person be like?

In real life, we seem to care more about "how to be a person" than "what kind of person to be" and "what kind of life is a good life". On this basis, the utilitarian world of rules often makes people forget the nobleness of human nature and the meaning of human virtue, lose their spiritual home and become "one-sided people" materialized by utilitarianism and pragmatism. In a sense, it is the one-sided materialization of modern market economy that ignores or even banishes the pursuit of spiritual home, meaningful value and humanity, and a large number of moral problems have appeared in society, so people call the limitations of moral social adjustment caused by modern materialized lifestyle and rule utilitarianism "the moral dilemma of modernity".

With the deconstruction of traditional social structure, interpersonal relationship is based on the interests of unrelated strangers, and communication activities are no longer limited to the scope of kinship but occur among strangers, which is reflected in a modern public communication. The communication between strangers or the solution of modern public life problems depends to a great extent on the generalization of friendship virtues, that is, the spirit of public life, which includes friendship with strangers and consciousness and responsibility to others. However, under the tide of marketization, after the original social foundation of consanguinity and spiritual culture are broken, the new contractual relationship and the spirit of adapting to strangers are not ready, and social and moral problems such as "moral indifference" and "low trust" are easy to appear. One of the fundamental reasons for the moral dilemma in the transitional period represented by moral indifference lies in the lack of "public spirit" or "public social virtue". That is to say, the interpersonal relationship between strangers in modern public life needs more cognition of others and "* * *", more respect and love for others and strangers, that is, the spirit of moral public needs to be adjusted. Foreign media told the China Analysis Report: "China people don't understand their responsibilities and obligations to the country and society as social individuals. Ordinary people in China usually only care about their families and relatives. China's culture is based on family kinship rather than rational society. China people only care about the well-being of their immediate family members and turn a blind eye to the suffering of people who have nothing to do with themselves. " Although this kind of analysis report is not comprehensive, it is also profound, which touches on the lack of China people's spirit, cognition of others and friendly ability to some extent.

China has always advocated and promoted the construction of spiritual civilization, the essence of which is moral remolding. However, when we strive to build professional ethics and social ethics, our efforts in personal ethics and family ethics are often unsatisfactory. As we all know, society is a whole composed of "people". Similarly, social morality is also composed of individual "personal morality". We should not only pay attention to macro social morality, but ignore micro personal morality. Fortunately, our public is generally civilized and moral. In the incident of beating people, a large number of people went to dissuade them, and even some people were willing to fight violence with violence and resist immoral behavior. However, problem of juvenile, whose plot is bad, should not be taken lightly, and should be educated by means of legal restraint, psychological counseling and moral guidance. After all, the key to determining the capacity of a barrel depends on the shortest piece. We can't let the lack of individual morality ruin the reputation of social morality.

The proposal of "modernization of governance system and governance capacity" shows that social governance has entered the context of institutional governance and institutional governance. It is worth noting that we should not simply fall into the one-way interpretation of "institutionalism". For modern social governance and modern people's quality of life and happiness, only material is not enough, and only system is not enough. Building a truly fair and harmonious society needs social virtue, public virtue and human conscience as important supplements on the basis of institutional justice and governing the country according to law. Social order should be the rule order of system and legal system plus "spiritual and moral order", "consciousness of others" and "public spirit".
