马克思·韦伯认为新教伦理是资本主义现代化产生的文化因素，现代化是西方文化的特例，在其他民族中不会产生。那么，传统商人伦理特别是诚信伦理在我国现代化过程中，能否承担这种西方既成的体制？我们认为，传统商人诚信伦理至少能在结果上获得“善”。虽然，遵守诺言、契约、合同只要求责任主体间履行的最后结果，但从商人的儒家品德看，主体的守信行为是发自内心的，是由内而外的路向，这恰恰与韦伯的观点相反。

The paper investigates the applicability Max Weber＇s protestant ethic, which works in the modernization of the capitalist western world alone, to the Chinese case in which conventional trust ethic is the basic ideology in business transactions. Despite of the common beliefs in goodness, Chinese moral concept and the Weber ethic are contradictory because the former is based on the Confucian internal moral cultivation while the latter is based on the binding laws of Protestantism.
