Synopsis

The rule of law is an inevitable choice for human society to move from a barbaric society that glorifies violence to a civilized society that upholds social justice. Ancient Greek philosophers engaged in logical reasoning about a fair and just legal order, exploring ways to reject bad laws and uphold good ones. In pre-Qin China, figures like Ji Zi, Xu Yu, and Mozi rejected the "tyrannical way" that glorified violence and instead promoted the "benevolent way" that followed objective laws. Mutual love and mutual benefit became the foundation of Mozi's doctrines. Ancient Roman philosophers and jurists considered natural reason as the basis for the state and the promulgation of laws. These ideas, especially the ancient Greek and Roman sages' emphasis on the superiority of the rule of law over the rule of men and the separation of powers, have greatly inspired the legal thinking and practice of modern human society.
