Socialist laws and morals are all based on the socialist economy. Once they are formed, they are relatively independent and play a huge driving role in economic and social development. The legal and moral purposes and directions of socialism are the same, and they all serve to maintain the economic foundation of socialism. Socialist legal ethics have the same value orientation and functions. People's value pursuit and belief in the meaning of life, and their choice and evaluation of right and wrong, good and evil, beauty and ugliness are unique to human society. This kind of value pursuit and belief exists in every era and every social form. Similarly, socialism does not only refer to its state form. Its core is a community with socialist beliefs and a common value standard for measuring good and evil, beauty and ugliness, right and wrong. It is a system for revitalizing China and building society. A group of people working together to achieve socialist modernization. This national spirit with the same ideals, goals, values, and pursuits is the pillar that enables contemporary socialist China to exist, develop, and stand among the nations of the world. Socialist law and morality support and cooperate with each other. On the one hand, the construction of socialist morality requires legal protection. Our country is still in the primary stage of socialism, and members of society are divided into advanced and backward members. Morality is multi-layered and pluralistic. It is impossible to apply the same standard to all people. Moreover, there are always some extreme individualists in society who ignore basic morality. In order to protect the long-term and fundamental interests of the people, there must be legal coercion, and this coercion is a deterrent against violations of basic morals. Once the law is formed, it will supplement, strengthen and protect socialist morality. Although no country can be maintained entirely by coercive power, without the guarantee of coercive power, it will be difficult for any country to maintain long-term peace and order. On the other hand, the implementation and observance of socialist laws must rely on moral support. As a law that maintains social order, it reflects the basic morality of socialism and embodies the moral customs and values ??of socialism that center on serving the people wholeheartedly. If the law violates the most basic moral standards of socialism, not only will it not be recognized by the public, but it will also destroy productivity and hinder social development. Empowering both law and morality: the requirements of the times. In the process of developing a socialist market economy, only by vigorously strengthening the construction of the legal system can we ultimately ensure the establishment of a socialist moral system. In contemporary countries around the world, there is a trend of legalizing morality, and most public morals have been incorporated into the legal framework. However, in order to be truly implemented, external heteronomy must be transformed into people's inner self-discipline. This is the requirement of the development of the times. There is a dynamic interactive and complementary mechanism between law and morality that conditions each other, complements each other, and transforms into each other. That is to say, the transformation of morality into law is called the legalization of morality; the transformation of law into morality is called the moralization of law. The establishment of this interactive and complementary mechanism will reduce social costs and increase benefits, thus becoming an effective lever for regulating social relations and behavior. This is because law and morality each have their own strengths and limitations. Especially in economic activities, due to the drive of interests and the expansion of the market, although the activities among diverse economic entities require moral support, they must be regulated by a strong legal system in order to enable diverse entities with different motivations and different purposes. Subjects cooperate in an orderly manner. For example, "honesty and trustworthiness" were originally a moral principle, but with the development of the commodity economy, "honesty and trustworthiness" has entered the civil codes of many Western countries and the General Principles of Civil Law of our country. At present, both in the East and the West, there is a trend of strengthening the legalization of morality, especially in the protection of the environment and ecology. In particular, the rapid development of high technology has brought a series of confusions and crises to social ethics, which requires the coercive power of the legal system, because in terms of coercion, the law is superior to moral self-discipline. Another aspect of the interaction mechanism between law and morality is the moralization of law. Because the law is not omnipotent, it has its own limitations.First, the scope of application of law is much narrower than that of morality, and the stability of law is often its lag; second, in real life, people's behaviors are ever-changing and colorful, and they are controlled by rigid and mechanical methods. The rules are difficult to replace the "cases" of real life full of individuality. This requires the supplement of morality, and the entire process of legislation and law enforcement is inseparable from the support of morality. It can be seen that law and morality are an inseparable organic whole. Therefore, scientifically evaluating the relationship between France and Germany and rationally developing and utilizing these two resources are undoubtedly of practical and far-reaching significance for building socialism with Chinese characteristics.
