Birth and development

Professional ethics arises with the development of social division of labor and the emergence of relatively fixed professional groups. People's professional life practice is the basis of professional ethics. At the end of the primitive society, due to the development of production and exchange, occupational divisions of labor such as agriculture, handicraft industry, and animal husbandry appeared, and professional ethics began to sprout. After entering the class society, occupations such as business, politics, military, education, and medical care also appeared. Based on the economic relations of a certain society, these specific occupations not only require people to have specific knowledge and skills, but also require people to have specific moral concepts, emotions and qualities. In order to maintain professional interests and credibility, and to meet the needs of society, various professional groups have gradually formed professional ethics in professional practice in accordance with the basic requirements of general social ethics. In ancient literature, there are long records of professional ethics. For example, in the ancient Chinese military book "Sun Tzu's Art of War" in the 6th century BC, there were records of "Generals, Wisdom, Faith, Benevolence, Bravery, and Strictness". The five virtues of wisdom, faith, benevolence, bravery and strictness were called the virtues of the ancient Chinese soldiers. The six standards of feudal officials' moral cultivation proposed by Shang Shushu of the Ming dynasty in the Qing Dynasty were called "the six precepts of self-reflection among the people", and their contents include "industrial care, prudent punishment law, absolute bribery, elitist, strict collection, and frugality." . Doctors in ancient China formed an excellent tradition of medical ethics in long-term medical practice. "A small illness cannot be a big one, an easy task cannot be a big one, the rich and the poor have the same heart, and the expensive and the low make the medicine the same." The "Hippocrates Oath" in ancient Greece in the 5th century BC is the earliest medical professional ethics document in the West. The ethics of a certain society are determined and restricted by the division of labor and economic system in that society. In feudal society, the self-sufficient natural economy and the feudal hierarchy not only restricted the communication between occupations, but also hindered the development of professional ethics. It only contains professional ethics in the rules and regulations of certain industrial and commercial guilds, as well as in the words and deeds of famous people engaged in the medical, educational, political, military and other industries. In this society's industry, there have also been people with superb skills and noble morality. Their professional ethical behavior and quality have been praised by the masses, and they have passed on from generation to generation, gradually forming a good tradition of professional ethics. The development of the capitalist commodity economy has promoted the expansion of social division of labor, and occupations and industries have become more and more complex. In order to enhance their competitiveness and increase their profits, various professional groups have promoted professional ethics in order to improve their professional credibility. In many countries and regions, professional associations have also been established to formulate association charters, which stipulate professional purposes and professional ethics. Thereby promoting the popularization and development of professional ethics. In a capitalist society, not only the existing morals, official ethics, medical ethics, and teacher ethics have been further enriched and improved, but many ethics not found in previous societies have appeared, such as corporate ethics, business ethics, lawyer ethics, and scientific ethics. , Editorial ethics, writer ethics, painter ethics, sports ethics, and more. However, due to the bourgeois egoism and the idea of money supremacy, the role of professional ethics has been greatly limited in capitalist society. Because of the nature of capitalist society, the hypocrisy of some professional ethics is promoted when needed, trampled on when not needed, and often make superficial articles and brag about themselves.

Socialist professional ethics was adapted to the needs of socialist material civilization and spiritual civilization, and developed under the guidance of communist moral principles and critically inherited the fine traditions of professional ethics in history. Because there is no distinction between high and low in all socialist professions, there is no fundamental conflict of interest between employees in the profession, between different professions, and between professional groups and society. Therefore, people in different professions can form common requirements. And moral ideals, establish a sense of responsibility and honor to love their job. Professional conventions formulated by all walks of life in China, such as the "service conventions" of business and other service industries, the "servicemen's oath" of the People's Liberation Army, the "scientific ethics standards" of science and technology workers, and some provisions in the "employees regulations" of factories and enterprises , All belong to the content of socialist professional ethics, they have played a huge role in professional life.

Professional Ethics and General Social Ethics

The professional ethics of any society is always affected and restricted by the general social ethics that the society occupies. They are in a sense the relationship between commonality and individuality. Professional ethics in capitalist society, especially those that are directly manipulated and participated by the bourgeoisie, are most directly and severely affected and restricted by the moral principles of bourgeois self-interest. They are the embodiment and specific supplement of the general moral principles of the bourgeoisie. . Socialist professional ethics is guided by the principles of communism ethics, and it is the concrete embodiment and supplement of communism ethics and norms in all walks of life. Compared with general social ethics, professional ethics has the following characteristics: Professional ethics is generated and developed in a specific professional environment formed in history. It often forms professional traditions and stable professional psychology and habits that are transmitted from generation to generation. Therefore, it has strong stability and continuity; Professional ethics reflects specific professional relationships and has the business characteristics of specific occupations, so its scope of action is limited to specific professional activities and only for people engaged in specific occupations Binding; Professional ethics are usually manifested in the form of rules and regulations, work rules, service conventions, labor regulations, behavior instructions, etc. In a class society, general social morality is always morality of a certain class. As a special form of ideology, professional ethics always reflects the economic relations of a certain society, and reflects the requirements and desires of a certain class, serving the interests of a certain class. This is because occupations in a class society are ultimately associated with the practice of a certain class and are constrained by the moral principles of the class. People of different classes will inevitably bring their own viewpoints and emotions into their professional lives, forming different professional views and professional ethics. The exploiting class always regards some occupations as "noble" and others as "humble". The professional ethics of the so-called noble occupations often directly reflect the interests of the exploiting classes and the spirit of the moral principles of the exploiting classes, while the professional ethics of the so-called humble occupations engaged by the working people often have the requirements of resisting the exploiting classes and the morals of the exploiting classes The principles are opposite. However, because different professions have different distances and sparseness with the ruling class, different occupational ethics are affected to varying degrees by the ruling class. However, even the professional ethics of occupations not directly affiliated with the ruling class, such as medical care, sports, and scientific research, cannot be rid of the constraints and influences of the socioeconomic, political system, and ethical principles of the ruling class because of the professional activities of their employees. So it also has a certain class character.
