摘要
先秦儒家从“德治”理论出发,从伦理的角度来解决权力制约问题,主张通过构建权力执掌者的道德价值体系、强化当权者的道德自律意识等方式实现对权力的有效制约。这一理论立足于传统中国的现实,具有重要价值。但同时,道德理想主义又使儒家的权力制约手段和方式重于自律,忽视他律,重于防范,疏于制裁;制约对象和内容重于叛臣,疏于贪吏,重于品行,疏于官吏的能力和实际作为,存在很大的局限性。先秦儒家权力制约思想对中国古代权力制约机制的建设产生了直接的影响。
Confucianists before the Qin Dynasty proposd the“rule by virtue”theory based on ethic method to solve the problem of power restraint .They advocated constructing officer's moral value system and intensified their moral self-restraint consciousness to realize power restriction. In term of Confucianist's “moral idealism”, the theory emphasizes restraint method on self-restraint and prevention, but not monitoring and punishment; emphasizes restraint target on the rebel officers, but overlooks the corruption ones;emphasizes restraint subject on the officer's conduct,but overlooks their ability and performance. The theory established on the reality of ancient China,directly influences the formation of the mechanism of the power restraint in ancient China government,even though existing many limitations.
