【摘要】：学界有一种看法,认为法家的法治思想类似于西方的形式法治思想,可以称之为一种"最低限度的法治",希望能从中探寻法家法治思想的现代价值,使之实现现代性的转化。然而,将法家的法治思想类比于西方的形式主义法治,不仅是对西方形式主义法治观念的误读,而且忽视了法家法治思想中导致极权的思想因子。法家思想遏制社会自治的发展,忽视家族伦常对于社会治理的意义,其中的法治主张并非没有价值因素,但隐藏在其形式主义法治主张背后的是国家至上、君权至上的价值预设。因此,忽视社会自治与道德价值的法家式法治并不是能带来良善的社会治理方式。当下的法治中国建设需要从古代法家的法治思想中吸取正反两个方面的经验,重视对社会自治力的培育,尊重市场和社会的自我发展规律。
[Abstract]:There is a view in academic circles that the legal thought of legalism is similar to that of the western formal rule of law, and can be called a "minimum rule of law", hoping to explore the modern value of the legalist thought of rule of law and make it realize the transformation of modernity. However, it is not only a misreading of the concept of the rule of law in western formalism, but also neglects the ideological factors that lead to totalitarianism in the thought of rule of law by law. The idea of legalism contains the development of social autonomy and neglects the significance of the family family to social governance. The proposition of rule of law is not without value factors, but it is the supreme country that hides behind its formalistic proposition of rule of law. The value presupposition of the supremacy of monarchy. Therefore, the legalistic rule of law which neglects social autonomy and moral value is not a good way of social governance. The current construction of China under the rule of law needs to absorb both positive and negative experiences from the ancient legalists' thoughts on the rule of law, attach importance to the cultivation of social autonomy, and respect the law of self-development of the market and society.
