论法学的科学性

On the Scientific Nature of Law

摘要: 法学具有科学性与否，这一拷问历经几百载，至今仍有人不断在质问。法学性质之基础如何确立，首要问题是在于对法学具有科学性与否的回答。而法学的科学性当如何得以证成，前提乃是对法学和科学二者概念之界定。再然观法学之发展历程，若以自然科学之标准来界定法学之科学性，以及因法学所具有之地域性否认法的科学性，则科学殿堂永无法学之席位。法学具有科学性，这是毋庸置疑的。法学之科学性，证成于法学所具有的共同价值追求、严密的知识体系、独特的研究方法。

Abstract: Whether the science of jurisprudence is scientific or not has been interrogated for hundreds of years. How to establish the basis of the nature of jurisprudence, the primary problem lies in the answer to whether jurisprudence is scientific or not. How to prove the scientificity of jurisprudence is based on the definition of the concepts of jurisprudence and science. However, if the scientific nature of law is defined according to the standard of natural science, and because of the regionalism of law, the hall of science will never have a place to law. There is no doubt that jurisprudence is scientific. The scientificity of jurisprudence lies in the pursuit of common value, rigorous knowledge system and unique research methods.
