Last week we talk about theconceptof"right"insociallife. Here let’s see the definition of correct from the personally view. For example,go when the traffic light gets green but stop when it gets red. This is so common and familiar to us. And it comes to rules in the traffic law. However, there are so many pedestrians pay no attention to the signal light but across the road if no car at that time, ignoring that danger can come without expectation. Meanwhile someone across the road swaggeringly while the red light on. Because they believe that no driver dare to hit the pedestrian since they have to pay for their behavior. Although there comes the fine measures for those run red lights, someone still not be conscious of how dangerous to run red lights. Some even don’t understand why they should be fine for their behavior. As a matter of fact, people run red lights not for any emergency but a habit, ignoring the signal lights and thinking less of the lights. It is a common phenomenon in China nowadays, including some drivers do the same as the pedestrians. From the individual interests, some believe it is correct for them. On the other hand, their behaviors cause some bad effections to society. Actually, it is extreme dangerous to run red lights. Firstly, it is harmful to their safty. We can not take it for granted that no drivers dare hit the pedestrian and it is safe to run red lights. The driver can not react timely if you just appear in the road. So you are the final victim. Secondly, it is a great threaten to the car when someone run red lights. The driver would stop the car or change their directions suddenly in order to keep away from the pedeatrain. Both would cause rear-ending, collide, roll the car and so on.
We can explain the definition of correct in this way: in the whole society, based on the conscious of the whole social groups, different people take different social profit into consideration. In some certain surroundings, when make something into a rule, it should be reasonable and legal. It is a standard which can promote the development of society. It should pay more attention to the society profit. Meanwhile this standard is a relative criterion. It changes with the change of the evironment and situation. That is to say, it is useful under the certain range and situation. It can turn to wrong exceeding that range and situation.
The definition of wrong in society.
Let’s explain this from the implicit rules and moral criterion in our daily life. For instance, sex before marriage. Men and women have sex while they do not get the legal marriage paper, is opposite to the principle that the unity of marriage and sex. There is not clear rule that no sex before marriage. But from the implicit rules and moral, it is not a good behavior. While someone think it does a great harm.
Firstly, it damages the basis of marriage and break the traditional moral. Mostly beginner of sex before marriage is male while the direct victim is female. The women have sex before marriage have to put up with the pressure of society and suffer the spiritual strike from men. Few men would like to marry with women who have sex before marriage. And when men know or hear about this fact, they would stop their relationship with women or turn their marriage to bad situation.
Secondly, the interpersonal relationship. People who no strict on sex usually think less of marriage. Dew couple takes the place of some marriage. There still remain crisis even get married. For example, because of sex before marriage, the couples suspect each other’s faith to marriage. Someone still no strict on sex after marriage or get along with other female, which cause the break of their family.
Last but not least, it causes the pressure of women in mentality. Women usually feel stressful and accusement from society which make them be self-abased. If they get married with the one who have sex before their marriage, women can calm down as the time going away. On the contrast, if they get pregnant and be abandoned, it would be a great harm to her whole life. She would be hostility to female and choose to be alone. Or just change her attitude on moral, go on in this way. Or just get married with other in a hurry to cover their wrong behavior.
While someone think it is necessary to have sex before marriage but not a big deal. They think it plays an important role on the harmony and satisfication of their sex, and it is also a good way to learn each other. This is new but is the symbol of advancement.
Now take the view of poor of rich, people owe money to someone is poor while rich men is people owe money to country. People make out the degree of wine during drinking is poor while rich men pay attention to the brand of wine. People write a book is poor while rich men is someone who copy the book illegally. Peole who eat fowl is poor while rich men is someone who eat wild animals. People who planted is poor while rich men is someone who make land trade. As for these words, if right, but it really does harm to the country profit just for the personal profit. If not, it just happen in the real life. So no one can say what is wrong or right. It is so unclear since it is a common phenomenon in society. But wrong not always wrong. If we can see the problem from the actual situation. Sometimes it can turn to right. In the other word, the existence of wrong just under the certain situation. How about think that in this way; with the development of society, people shape their mode of thinking under their living evironment, which is opposite to the tradition. It is just relative to the society standard. It depends on the change of time, place, evironment. It is not isolated. And sometimes it develops to the opposite direction with the change of time, place and evironment.
Assumption:
Right time：T(a)=1 Wrong time：T(b)=-1
Righ place：P(a)=1 Wrong place：P(b)=-1
Right evironment：E(a)=1 wrong evironment：E(b)=-1
Favourable social value:V(a1)=1 harmful social value:V(a2)=-1
Favourable individual value V(b1)=1 harmful individual value V(b2)=-1
The criterion of right and wrong: R=T+P+E+V(a)+V(b)
