康德与赫费的政治秩序之构想

Kant and Hoffe’s Conception of Political Order

一种没有法律的状态是一种非正义的状态。基于这一共识,康德与赫费提出了他们的政治秩序之构想。就自由和平等的法伦理原则及三权分立与人民主权而言,二者国内政治秩序的构想总体说来具有契合性。在国家间的政治秩序方面,康德倡导构建自由国家联盟;赫费诉诸法律、诉诸强制、诉诸具有操作性的体制,将康德乌托邦式的自由国家联盟构筑成了可以实现的世界共和国。康德认为,大自然通过人的本性来推动和实现国内及国际的法治状态,赫费则强调借助德性建构国内的法秩序,在全球范围内强调世界公民道德。赫费在全球化语境中借鉴了康德学说的思想精华,延伸了其政治哲学的理论触角,让康德的古典政治哲学思想释放出了现代意涵。

Based on the consensus that a state without law is in a state of injustice, Kant and H?ffe put forward their ideas of political order. As far as the legal and ethical principles of freedom and equality, the separation of the three powers as well as the democratic rights of people are concerned, Kant and H?ffe’s concepts of the domestic political order are generally compatible. In terms of political order among nations, Kant advocated the establishment of a free alliance of states;By resorting to laws, coercion and an operational system, H?ffe built the Kant’s utopian free Union of nations into an achievable worldwide republic. Kant believes that nature makes use of human nature to promote and realize rule of law at home and abroad, while H?ffe emphasizes use of virtue to build a domestic legal order, and stresses global citizen morality on a global scale. H?ffe, in the context of globalization, borrowed the ideological essence of Kant’s theory and extended the theoretical research of Kant’s political philosophy, equipping Kant’s classical political philosophy with a modern meaning.
