限制与平衡:法社会学视野下的权利与权力的对话

Limit and Balance:Dialogue between power and right from the Perspective of law sociology

在法社会学视野中,权力是一个政治法律概念,从渊源上讲,权力是社会历史发展到一定阶段的产物,权力乃为权利而生,为权利而设。权利与权力既相互联系,又相互区别,是对立统一的关系。在社会现实生活中,权利与权力往往出现功能背反。权力与权利由对立走向平衡和统一,是民主政治发展的必然结果。

Right and power is the backbone of the human social system. In law sociology, power is a political and legal concept, a product of social development to a certain degree, born from right and designed for right. Right and power are connected and interdependent. In reality, the functions of the two usually run to the opposite. Therefore, the movement of running against each other towards balance and unity is the inevitable outcome of the development of democratic politics.
