论法理学的构成及其资源性要素

独立而完整的法理学学科,主要应当由内容性要素、方法性要素和渊源性要素构成。所谓内容性要素,主要是法理学所阐发的理论学说;所谓方法性要素,主要是法理学所阐发和运用的方法论;所谓渊源性要素,主要是法理学赖以取材、孕育和形成的资源、进路和动因。研究法理学的构成,仅仅注重研究内容性要素和方法性要素是不够的,还应当充分注重研究渊源意义上的法理学构成要素。法理学的渊源性要素包含资源、进路和动因三种基本要素。其中,资源性要素是构成法理学整体的更重要和更基本的要素,主要包括理论学说、流派思想和人物作品三种。在这方面,中国现时的法理学著述还有很大的发展空间。

On the Constitutions of Jurisprudence and the Resources as one of its Elements

Jurisprudence as an independent and integrated subject consists of the elements of contents, methods and sources. The element of contents means the theories and doctrines that Jurisprudence expound on. The element of methods means the methodology that Jurisprudence applies. The element of sources means the resources, ap-proaches and motives that Jurisprudence extracts and depends upon to come into being. In studying the constitutions of Jurisprudence, it is far from enough to lay particular stress on the elements of contents and methods, and the re-search on the element of sources is of great importance as well. The element of sources includes such three cate-gories as resource, approach and motive. Thereinto, the category of resource makes the more important and funda-mental element for the whole Jurisprudence, which includes theories, academic schools and works of the Jurists. As far as the element of sources is concerned, the present Chinese Jurisprudence still has much to do.
