财富的法哲学原理:从古典功利主义到自由主义

The Legal Philosophy of Wealth: from the Classical Utilitarianism to Liberalism

古典功利主义具有三大逻辑缺陷,即功利原则的不可证明性、个人功利与社会功利的冲突、功利的不可客观计量性。功利主义与自由主义的联姻具有重要的意义:自由作为手段可以促使财富最大化,自由扩大了财富的领域,自由还让财富最大化获得了正义的力量。自由主义的功利主义完全破解了古典功利主义的三大逻辑缺陷。此外,财富还是意志自由的最初定在,因而财富的本质是自由。

The classic utilitarianism has three big flaws in logic, namely: the impossibility to prove utilitarian principle, the conflict between personal utility and social utility and the impossibility of objective measurement of utility. The combination with utilitarianism and liberalism has important significance: freedom as a means can promote maximizing wealth, freedom can expand the realm of wealth, and freedom also allows for the maximization of wealth to access to the power of justice. Liberal utilitarianism can completely solve the three big flaws of classic utilitarianism in logic. In addition, wealth is the initial being of free will, so that the essence of wealth is freedom.
