摘要
悠久的礼法文化孕育了中华法系,中华法系固化了礼法文化。诸如"德主刑辅"和"为政以德"、选贤任能和科举取士、重义轻利和诚信、基于"中道"的中刑与慎刑和恤刑、"无讼"和调处息讼等等礼法传统中,蕴涵着丰富的"良法善治"智慧。"法治中国"建设意味着中国正从革命法学和法制转型为治理法学和法制,其中包括从移植法学和法制转型为特色法学和法制。实现这一转型需要得到传统礼法文化的滋养,通过折中和融西实现创新。
The time-honored li–fa(ritual and legal) culture gave birth to China's legal system, and the latter in turn consolidated this traditional culture. There are many good examples of liangfa shanzhi(good law and good governance) in China's history, such as "Virtues are central, punishment supplements them," "To govern, one must rule with virtue," "appointing people according to their merits," the "civil-service examination system," "righteousness and integrity outweighing profit," "being pertinent, cautious, and considerate in applying a criminal penalty based on the Way of Centrality," the pursuit of no litigation, and quelling litigation through mediation. To strengthen rule of law, China should make its jurisprudence and legal institutions intended for national governance instead of revolution, as well as stamp them with Chinese characteristics even though most are introduced from the West. During this transformation, we should take rich nutriment from ritual and legal traditions and innovatively integrate them into modern legal institutions.
