社会公德是社会道德体系的基础层次。虽然我国的经济建设在飞速发展,但社会的精神文明建设却相对滞后,社会公德的现状不容乐观。导致我国社会公德缺失的原因,有政治、经济、社会和文化等多方面的因素。加强社会公德建设,既要靠教育,靠人们自觉的社会公德意识和社会舆论的力量,也要靠法律法规、政策和制度约束等途径。 Social morality is the basic level of social morality system. Although China’s economic construction is developing rapidly, the construction of spiritual civilization in society is relatively lagging behind. The status quo in social ethics is not optimistic. The reasons leading to the lack of social morality in our country are political, economic, social and cultural factors. To strengthen the building of social public morality, we must rely on education, rely on people’s conscious awareness of social morality and public opinion forces, but also on the laws, regulations, policies and institutional constraints and other means.
