Reflection on Moral Criticism of Mass Culture

Abstract

Since China's reform and opening up, some new changes in the field of social morality (especially in the field of social morality and professional ethics) have become the focus of public attention. "The theory of moral decline" and other pessimistic argument are widely prevalent. Since the 1990s, with the vigorous development of mass culture, the criticism of mass culture has always been the focus topic in the cultural circle, and the criticism of the negative impact of mass culture on social morality is also heard. However, whether the development of mass culture is harmful to the construction of social morality and even the decline of social morality is correct or not is worthy of discussion and reflection.
