(七)法治-凯发娱乐
目的解释将法治[107]纳入考量范围。法治是一个复杂的概念。[108]鲁宾斯坦正确地指出“很少有概念被如此频繁地使用,也很少有概念像法治一样难以被理解。”[109]要理解这个概念,我们应该区分它的三个主要本质:形式法治、法理法治和实体法治。法治的这三个本质具有重叠的部分。然而,在对法律进行解释时,它们之间存在巨大差异。如对形式法治可以这样理解:
国家的每个人——个人、公司和国家机关——都必须依法行事,非法活动必须得到社会的有组织的制裁。从这个意义上讲,法治具有双重含义,既涉及规则的合法性,也涉及法治。这是一个形式的原则,它不针对法律的内容,而是针对法律制裁的需要,无关乎内容本身。这种意义上的法治与政权标准无关,与公共秩序的原则相关。[110]
形式法治无助于我们构建恰当的解释理论。每一套解释理论,一旦被采纳和尊重,必须对解释后的法律实施有帮助。目的解释使用目的推定的方式将法治要求转化为解释原则。
