论伪实证主义——试析福斯特霍夫公法学方法论

On Pseudopositivismus: Analysis on Methodology of Forsthoff's Public Law

德国行政法学家福斯特霍夫将宪法解释为纯技术性的法治体系,从而抽空宪法价值内涵;从社会实证角度研究行政法,赋予当代行政生存照顾职能,但过于强调行政的价值实现和自主构建,造成行政法脱离宪法监督,破坏了整体法治。总结福斯特霍夫的公法学方法论有益于加强对法治国、社会国背景下公法学研究方法的认识。

The Germany administrative scientist Forsthoff definesthe Constitution as a kind of pure technical rule of law system, stripping its value connotation. To study from thesocial empirical perspective, the contemporary administration is empowered with survival and care-taking functions which focuses too much on the administration value realization and self-construction, leading to the free supervision of the administrative law from the Constitution and the disruption of the entire rule of law. Consequently, to summarize the methodology of Forsthoff＇spublic law will be of help for enhancing the recognition of public law research methods under the background of rule of law and welfare state.
