摘要

Ancient Chinese philosophy has explored the relationship between the good and the right in a quite distinct way from modern Western philosophy.According to its insights rooted in real life,the fundamental function of the right is neither to have little to do with the good as deontology claims,nor merely to produce more good in quantitative terms as consequentialism claims,but is to ensure the primary good and prevent the primary evil,both of which are of top importance to human life first and foremost in qualitative terms.
