自然法思想是西方最古老的法律思潮,在西方历史上一直扮演着重要的角色。我国先秦的伦理道德虽然几经演变,作为实在法的价值标准这一地位却未曾动摇。根据自然法概念的一般意义,将儒道两家的基本思想看作是中国的“自然法”。对中西方的“自然法”观念进行比较,可为我国的法治建设提供启示。 The thought of natural law is the oldest trend of law in the West and has always played an important role in the history of the West. Although the ethics and morality in our pre-Qin period have evolved several times, the status as the value standard of the substantive law has not been shaken. According to the general meaning of the concept of natural law, the basic ideas of both Confucianism and Taoism are regarded as the “natural law” of China. Comparing the concepts of “natural law” between China and the West can provide enlightenment for the construction of law in our country.
