Abstract:Modern civilization has cut the time into two sections : the traditional and modern . In order to be preserved , tradition must prove or show that it has the modernity and can adapt to and combine with the constitution , structure , values of modern society , or can have a positive rolein modern society .Otherwise ,tradition would be despised .Ethics in modern society has now been faced with criticismor reconstructionin Europeand the United States ,andit is no longer be able to maintain its hegemony and legitimacy outside the United States and Europe . Furthermore ,it has to meet challenges from other types of ethics . East Buddhism and other religions can provide many intellectual resources . Confucianism and Taoism in China could also accomplish a great deal in such situations .
