“五个主义”的摒弃与中国法学的未来

中国法学60年,以1978年为界,可划分为两个阶段。就其指导思想即法学认识论和价值论而言,前30年主要是"法学教条主义"、"法律经验主义"、"法律虚无主义"、"法律工具主义"、"法学实用主义"。后30年的进步,主要是摒弃这"五个主义"的结果。经30年的努力,"五个主义"远未彻底摒弃,有些问题仍还比较严重地存在。中国法学如果要起到它指导中国法治建设实践所应当起的作用,只有继续反对和彻底拼弃这"五个主义"。

Eradication of Five Doctrines and the Future of Legal Scholarship in China

The recent 60 years of the development of legal scholarship in China,with 1978 as its boundary line,can be divided into two phases.In the perspective of its guiding ideas,i.e.,the legal cognitive doctrine and the doctrine of values,the first 30 years can be said to be dominated by 5 doctrines:legal dogmatism,legal empiricism,legal nihilism,legal instrumentalism and legal pragmatism.The progress made in the second 30 years owes greatly to discarding the very 5 doctrines.Unfortunately,the 5 doctrines have not been entirely eradicated as of and in fact some problems are even more serious.To play the guiding role in the process of establishing the system of rule of law,legal scholars in China have to fight against and finally eliminate the 5 doctrines.
