Abstract

The relationship between morality and profit has always been the focus of everyone’s thinking throughout the ages. Compared with moralism or utilitarianism, the “unity of morality and profit”, which is based on love, attaches importance to the principles of humanitarianism, benevolence, and aims at balancing personal interests with the pursuit of public interests, is more in line with the development of contemporary society. Such a unified view of morality and profit is reflected in the traditional Chinese morality and profit, and at the same time, it can overcome the negative influence of utilitarianism on contemporary society to a certain extent, and is a view of morality and profit that should be promoted.
