摘要
公民美德是维系共和政体的一种社会情感。古典形态的公民美德以公共利益的至上性为核心价值取向。文艺复兴与启蒙时代开始了从古典公民美德到现代公民美德的转型。托克维尔奠定了以“正确理解的自利原则”为基础的现代公民美德。公民美德的历史形态及演化过程对当代中国政治教育的启示是:塑造社会主义公德必须采取世俗化的、制度化的、自立自治的政治教育。
Civic virtue is a kind of social ethos sustaining a repulic. The supremacy of public interest became the central value for classical civic virtue. There was a transition from classical civic virtue to modern civic virtue during the Renaissance and the Enlightment： Tocqueville based the latter on a principle of ＂self- interest properly understood＂. The historical form and evolutional process affords an inspiration to the political education of contemporary China： namely, to mould socialist civic virtue through secularized, institutionized, self-contained, and self-atonomous political education.
