The relationship between social morality and economic development 5

1. Economy is the foundation of morality, and economy determines morality;

2. Morality has a counterproductive effect on the economy.

The moral reflection of socio-economic relations is carried out in a dynamic way.

Morality: a form of special social consciousness, determined by the economic base, a reflection of socio-economic relations. The nature of socio-economic relations determines the nature of various moral systems, and the interests expressed in socio-economic relations determine the basic principles and main norms of various morals.

In a class society, socio-economic relations are expressed as class relations, so morality has a class character. The reflection of morality on socio-economic relations is not passive and passive, but the activities of grasping the world in an active way and guiding and regulating people's social practices.

The original socio-economic structure is broken, new interest groups replace the old ones, and changes are carried out to consolidate the rule on the basis of the original culture, so the moral dimension will also be affected.

The moral reflection of socio-economic relations is carried out in a dynamic way.

1. Morality, as a special ideology of social trouble, is determined by the economic foundation and is a reflection of social and economic relations.

2. On the one hand, the nature of social and economic relations determines the nature of various moral systems, and the interest relations embodied in them determine the basic principles and main norms of morality.

3. Changes in socio-economic relations inevitably lead to changes in morality. In a class society, socio-economic relations are mainly expressed in class relations, and as a result, morality is more or less marked by class.

4. On the other hand, morality's anti-repatriation of the socio-economic system is not passive, but active.

First of all, morality plays a role in promoting the formation, consolidation, and development of the economic foundation on which it depends.

Second, morality is an important spiritual force that influences the development of social productive forces.

Third, in a class society, morality is an important part of the class struggle.

Fourth, morality indirectly serves the economic base by influencing other social ideologies and other parts of the superstructure.

Fifth, morality plays an important role in maintaining and guaranteeing social stability and the normal conduct of people's daily life and interactions.

Moral reaction to socio-economic relations is a common phenomenon, but the active role it plays is of a different nature, and there is a distinction between revolutionary and reactionary, progressive and conservative.

Marxist ethics fully affirms the active role of morality in the development of social history, but does not regard it as a decisive force for the transformation of class social and economic relations.
