启蒙、论证还是商谈?——也谈中国法学家与公众之关系

Englightment,Demonstration or Negotiation?——discussion on the relationship between Chinese jurists and the public

一些中国法学家曾经将启蒙公众作为自己的历史使命,但这种将公众"客体化"的启蒙运动因具体语境、现代性知识的内在张力等而面临着危机。中国法学家试图通过探讨"法律论证"等法律方法来构筑法律人共同体,但型构职业共同体、将公众"他者化"的话语机制与启蒙公众的意图存在着内在冲突;同时,因法律人与公众之间的沟通被切断而面临困境。解决问题的一个可能的方向是尊重公众的主体地位,构建与公众的商谈机制。

Some Chinese jurists takes enlightening the public as their historical mission.This kind of movement,which makes the public objectified,faces crisis because of the internal tension of concrete context and modern knowledge.Chinese jurist attempted to construct a lawyer communicty through discussing such legal method as ＂legal demonstration＂,but constructing professional community and ＂othering＂ the public conflict with enlightening the public.Meanwhile,the lawyers face predicaments after disconnecting the communication with the public.One of the solution to the problem may lie in respecting the subjective status of the public and building the negotiating mechansim with the public.
