崇尚诚信是中华民族的传统美德,是中国古代意识形态的重要组成部分。但近代以来,诚信却没有成为一种普遍的国民意识,造成了信用的缺失。社会主义市场经济本质上是信用经济、诚信经济,要求人们具有诚信意识和诚信观念。因此,在完善社会主义市场经济的今天,充分挖掘传统诚信思想中可以借鉴的内容,对完善中国社会主义市场经济具有重要的理论和实践意义。 Adhering to honesty and trustworthiness is the traditional virtue of the Chinese nation and is an important part of ancient Chinese ideology. However, in modern times, honesty has not become a common national awareness, resulting in the lack of credit. The socialist market economy is essentially a credit economy and an honest economy, requiring people to have the concept of honesty and integrity. Therefore, at the moment of perfecting the socialist market economy, it is of great theoretical and practical significance to fully tap the content that can be borrowed from the traditional concept of good faith in improving China’s socialist market economy.
