法家的法治学说以及现代借鉴意义

The Legal Theory of the Legalists in Ancient China and Its Influential Significance in Modern Times

法家的法治学说随着秦亡而走向沉寂,但是为汉以后历代封建统治者以“阴法”的形式继承下来并揉入封建正统法律思想中支撑中华帝制长达两千余年。其中,一些合理的成分对我们现在的法治建设仍有借鉴意义。

The legal theory of the legalists in ancient China became exhausted as the Qing Dynasty had disappeared but its inherited influence as 'an invisible law' amalgamated in the orthodox legislative ideology of the feudal Chinese society has lasted for more than two thousand years from ancient to the present day. Some of its appropriate elements remain instructive for the legislative construction in present China.
