This book is divided into two parts: theory and methodology. The theoretical part takes the value characteristics of ethics as its starting point, aiming to reveal the essential essence of ethics and provide a comprehensive understanding of it. The methodology part, through the dialectical thinking of dual opposition and the examination of the history of ethical thought, reveals the complementarity between ethical thought methods of different eras and types, exploring the fundamental path to the formation of a comprehensive and dialectical approach to ethical thought. The book confronts the practical realities of contemporary China's modernization efforts, exploring the value rationality basis of socialist modernization construction and striving to seek ethical and moral content with practical vitality.
