中国特色法律体系的法律权威与公正司法

Legal Authority and Judicial Justice after Formation of Chinese Characteristic Legal System

中国特色法律体系形成是30年法制建设的重大成就,但法律权威并未充分彰显。现行法律体系更大程度上是文本意义上的,更多依赖国家强制力撑持而获得形式上的普遍服从。法律权威应当是法律的内在说服力和外在强制力的统一。在规范和制度化特征方面,现行法律体系还有尚未形成内在一致的法律体系意义脉络、良性的吸纳和拒斥社会挑战的机制以及由中国社会多重二元性所导致的多重二元割裂等不足。法律权威树立依赖于法律制度化实施,但不能简单地将法律权威与公正司法等量齐观。若要仰赖法律权威推进司法公正,必须在澄清公正司法一系列问题的基础之上,遵循若干法治标准和进行有效制度建构才能实现。

The formation of Chinese characteristic legal system marks the significant achievements of legal construction in 30 years, but the legal authority fails to fully demonstrate. To a greater extent, the existing legal system is the sense of the text, which more depends on state enforcement to obtain the universal obedience in form. Legal authority should be within the unity of inner persuasion and external enforcement of law. In the normative and insti- tutional characteristics, the existing legal system doesn＇t yet form a legal system with the inner meaning of the same context, positive mechanism to absorb and reject social challenges and inadequate of multi-dual fragment caused by the multi-duality of Chinese society. The building of legal authority depends on the implementation of legal institutionalization, but we can not simply equate the legal authority and fair administration of justice. To rely on legal authority to promote justice, we must clarify a series of questions based on the fair administration of justice, and follow certain standards of law to achieve an effective system construction.
