法与治之间:基于国家治理的实践性理解依法治国

Between Law and Governance:Understanding the Rule of Law Proposition on the Basis of the Practicality of National Governance

必须在国家治理的真实实践中(即国家治理的实践性)理解法治的性质和深层内涵,并把握更有情境性的中国式“法与治”的关系。从国家治理的实践性出发,可以归纳出依法治国的几个重要命题:在党的领导下理顺治理主体的关系;基于人民群体的多元性回应社会冲突的复杂性;通过厘清行政行为的边界确认公共利益;以基层群众的合法组织化推动社会治理现代化。因此,当前推进全面依法治国的重要任务是清点、梳理和完善相应的法律及制度安排,协同法与治的关系,以消弭情境与制度之间鸿沟,让法律在治理过程中得以执行,同时真正推动“以人民为中心的治理”。

In order to comprehend the essence and the deep-seated implications of the rule of law,and to grasp the contextually nuanced relationship between“law and governance”within the Chinese framework,it is imperative to examine the concepts within the realm of national governance praxis,or its practical dimension.From this practical perspective,several pivotal propositions for advancing the rule of law emerge:streamlining the relationships among governance entities under the Party’s leadership;addressing the intricacies of social conflicts in light of the people’s diversity;affirming public interests by delineating the boundaries of administrative conduct;and fostering the modernization of social governance through the legitimate structuring of grassroots communities.Consequently,the pressing tasks in comprehensively governing the country by law entail inventorying,refining,and augmenting the pertinent legal and institutional frameworks,harmonizing the interplay between law and governance,bridging the chasm between contextual realities and institutional provisions,ensuring the implementation of laws in governance processes,and genuinely promoting“governance centered on the people”.
