A critique of refined egoism
Journal: Region - Educational Research and Reviews DOI: 10.32629/rerr.v8i2.5108
Abstract
As an ideological value system and moral proposition, refined egoism doesn't emerge accidentally, it is a product of human society at a specific historical stage of development. It manifests itself in the pursuit of self-interest in a "refined" manner. Extremely destructive, refined egoism constantly challenges the bottom line of moral standards, triggers conflicts in social relations, and distorts people's values. This paper explores the causes of refined egoism from the perspectives of family, school and society, and effectively addresses it from the dimensions of traditional Chinese ethics, socialist core values and the Marxist view of justice and interest, so as to guide people to establish correct values.
