孝道在中国源远流长。近现代对孝道的批判使人们对孝道产生了许多误解。新时期孝道的重建首先必须回归到它的初始意义上来,即亲亲、尊老、爱幼等人的自然本性的一面,对其内容也要作一些必要的修定,还必须有一定的制度法规保证其施行,这样孝道在新时期一定会起到新的作用。
The concept of piety has avery long history in china ,In Chunqiu period ,Confucius summarized the concept of piety released by the thinkers before him ,and then the book the Doctrine of Piety came into being ,which symbolized the fulfillment of Confucianism on the concePt of piety .Since Han Dynasty the rulers used piety as their ruling tool,then piety began to lost its original meaning and was misunderstood gradually.Nowdays ,there are lots of social issues such as abusing the aged people,bad-treat to the young children,indifference to parents.In order to solve those problems and make the society more harmonious.we need to rebuild the concept of piety ,and first we should come back to its original meaning,which is from the nature of human being,and also we should amend some of its content,and at the same time ,we need the laws to guarantee its execution .
