摘要
中国古代儒、法两家鲜明地提出德治和法治两种治国方式,并展开了激烈的论战。法家的法治思想在战国取得胜利,儒家德治思想在汉后成为显学。儒家以性善论作为实行德治的人性基础,而法家以性恶论作为实行法治的人性基础,两种对立的治国方略都在实践中发挥了彼此不可替代的作用,研究古代德治、法治两种治国模式对建立完善当代以德治国和依法治国的治国方略具有重要的借鉴和启示。
In ancient China, the Confucianists advocated the rule by virtue as the way of governing the country, while the Legalists propose to rule the country by law, and the two schools of thought had constantly made heated debates over a long time. The Legalists’ proposition prevailed during the Warring States Period, while the Confucianists’ advocacy became dominant after the Han dynasty. The rule by virtue is based on the theory of original goodness of human nature, while the ruleby law is based the theory of original evil of human nature. The two opposing ways of governing country played mutually irreplaceable roles in political practice. An exploration into the two opposite modes of governance in ancient China will provide important reference and inspiration for making and perfecting the contemporary national strategy of governing the country by law and ruling the country by virtue.
