Abstract: That ethics is economy determined refers to the basic impact steady economic development has on people’s life. Economic relation under private ownership gives rise to ethics that supports the system, and existence of this ethics is historical and has been observed by the two basic classes within the system. There could be non-essential or regional conflicts between ethics and economic relation, but the influence of ethics against economic relation can be realized only by ways of other aspects of the superstructure.

Key words: economic relation, ethics, life, Marxism

摘要： 经济关系决定道德指的是经济关系的稳固和发展对人们生活实践的基本规定性。私有制经济关系基础之上只能建立一种维护这种关系的道德;这种道德的存在具有历史的普遍性,它会为私有制经济关系所严格规定的两大基本对立阶级的共同讲求。同一性质的道德和经济关系会发生非根本性的、局部性的冲突。道德对经济关系的能动反作用主要是通过间接方式实现的,它必须渗透到上层建筑其他因素中借助它们的影响力才能实现对人们实践的善恶规导。
