休谟的法律正义观

Hume's Idea on the Justice of Law

休谟区分正义的人为之德和仁爱的自然之德,人为之德平等对人却产生了不平等的结果,自然之德不平等对人却趋向平等的结果,两种德性只有"和而不同"地和谐相处,才能保证社会既有效率又有平等。在新世纪,我国在过去社会发展由平等取向向效率取向转变的基础上,实现由效率取向向公正取向的再次转变,也就是在实现正义中建立和谐社会。

Hume differentiates the virtue of justice from the natural virtue of kindheartedness. Virtue treats people equally though it produces unequal result. The natural virtue treats people unequally however it runs to equal result. If the two facts are harmoniously cooperating with difference there will be a society efficient and equal.
