法律体系理论与当代中国法律体系的建构——以法律体系理论的有用与无用为分析起点

Legal System Theory and Construction of Legal System in Contemporary China:An Analysis Based on the Debates over the Usefulness of Legal System Theory

目前我国学界存在关于法律体系理论有用和无用的争论。此次争论是一个人为制造且较为混乱的争论,但是却揭示了我国法律体系建构中出现的问题——缺少理论。根据实践与理论之间关系的内在规定性,当代中国的法律体系构建应当有法律体系理论的参与。我国法律体系建构中缺少理论的原因在于对实践与理论之间关系的错误认识——惟实践主义倾向。

At present, scholarly debates exist in China concerning the usefulness of legal system theory. De spite much confusion they have generated, those debates have revealed a fact that the construction of Chinese legal system lacks theoretical support. The intrinsic rules behind practice and theory require that theory should be involved in the construction of legal system in contemporary China. Nevertheless, due to an incorrect un derstanding of the relationship between practice and theory, we have put too much emphasis on practice, re suiting in the lack of theory in legal system construction.
