摘要
改革与法治是当下中国的两大主题。然而,改革与法治是两种在思维倾向上存在冲突的治理措施。因而在有关国家与社会治理的项层设计中,必须协调好改革与法治的关系,尽量避免制造两者之间的尖锐对立,找到两者的兼容点,以便充分发挥两者促进国家秩序和社会发展的积极功能。如果不能协调好改革与法治之间的关系,两者之间的对立可能会使其积极功能相互抵消,从而给社会带来更大的混乱。改革与法治共进的方式主要是修法,能够兼容法治与改革的法治方式就是修法。但对于修法不能仅仅从立法的角度考察,如果那样的话,推进改革的法治方式就显得过于单一。这就需要对改革与修法的意义重新审视。从法治的角度看,改革主要是修法,但在法治话语系统中,需要我们慎言改革;在法治场景下,改革的言辞应该用修法替代。这是强化法治话语权所必须的思维转向。
Reform and rule by law are the two major themes in the context of contemporary China. However, they are also two governance measures of conflicting tendency in the thinking. Thus for the top level design of national and social governance, we must coordinate the relationship between the two, with the aim of avoiding sharp confrontation, finding compatible point, and giving full play to their function in promoting social order and development. If the relationship between the two themes failed to be well coordinated, their confrontation counteracts the effect of their positive function, thus throwing the society into disorder. In our study, we find that the way of coordinating the reform and the rule by law is to amend the laws. The amendment, however, cannot be unitarily studied from the perspective of the legislation. Otherwise, it will oversimplify the way of advancing the two themes. Consequently, there is a need for a re-examination of the significance of the reform and the amendment to the laws. From the perspective of the rule by law, the reform is mainly amending the laws. Within the legal discourse system, however, we need exercise caution in reforms, and the diction of reform need to be replaced by amendments to the laws, which is a necessary turn to strengthen the thought of rule by law.
