论民间法研究的犬儒主义色彩

The Cynicism Flavor of the Folk Law Research

改革开放之后,政治权力尽管对学术的控制全面放松了,但其仍然时刻保持着侵入学术的可能。法学学术面对这种政治情势形成了一种既试图回避政治禁忌又试图迎合学术体制的犬儒主义生存策略,而民间法研究正好满足了这样一种生存策略,民间法研究者无疑对当下中国的政治现实有着一种清醒的意识,但其仍然回避了关键的政治性法律实践问题,而在比较安全的去政治化的法律实践领域大力挖掘学术资源。民间法研究者还在既中立客观而又具有现实意义的绝佳外表下不恰当地将这种片面化的学术研究放大到法治建设的全局性地位,为其进行精致的正当化辩护。民间法研究者最终通过各种似是而非的理论策略能够达到一种犬儒主义效果:对学术无能的不自知、对逃避政治现实的自我说服、对学术繁荣的自我陶醉。

Mter the reform and opening - up of China, although political power overall relaxes the control of society, it still keeps the possibility of invading academic area at all times. When legal academics face the political situation, it forms the survival strategy of cynicism not only tries to avoid political taboos but also cater to academic system. The folk law re- search just satisfies this kind of survival strategy. It is no doubt that the folk law researchers have clear of political reality of the present China, but they still avoid the key political legal practice problems and energetically excavate academic resources in the safer de - political legal practice area. The folk law researchers inappropriately enlarge the one - sided academic research into strategic place and defend it delicately in the superexcellent appearance, which is not only neutral and objective but also possesses realistic meaning. Through various seemingly right but actually wrong academic tactics, the folk law researchers finally realize a kind of cynicism effect： lacking the self - knowledge of academic inability, self - persuasion of avoiding political reality, and self - inebriety of academic prosperity.
