论适度的法律程序

On Appropriate Legal Procedures

法律程序除应当具有"正当性"之外,还必须具有"程序性"。"正当性"是法律程序的实体价值的取值所在;"程序性"是法律程序的程序价值的存在基础。法律程序在正当性意义上必须满足最低正义的标准;而法律程序在"程序性"意义上则必须满足适度的要求;必须如此,才能够是真正的正当法律程序。判断法律程序是否具有程序性,取决于对应某特定社会活动的立法是否具有两个以上的、以义务为内容的、具有内在联系的程序规则。

The author points out that legal procedures should not only be ＂legitimate＂, but also ＂procedural＂. ＂Legitimacy＂ is the entity value of legal procedures; ＂procedure＂ is the legal basis for the existence of procedural value. Proeeedings in the sense of legitimacy must meet the minimum standards of justice, while the proceedings in the sense of ＂procedure＂ must meet the requirement of appropriation. Only in this way, can it be the real due process. Judging whether legal procedures are procedural process depends on whether the legislation corresponding to a particular social activity has two more obligative rules of procedure which are inherently linked. The vague opinon, which makes procedures equivalent to ＂step, sequence, process, method,＂ or ＂relationship＂, is the consequence of lacking deep study for procedures and confusing the procedures and program activities.
