Now who do not break the law?

In the traditional concept of Chinese, crime is a very serious matter. If a person breaks the law, basically is qualitative. However, in the modern concept, crime is a common thing, did not commit the modern method of the few. The reason is the ancient law is relatively simple, but mainly in the "criminal law", the modern law is very complex, the importance of "criminal law" greatly reduced, others include "civil law", the law more and more.

Ancient law in "criminal law", therefore, once illegal, often is a felony, are going to jail, or is to be taken. Therefore, the ancient people fear of crime, the majesty of the law is relatively high, made by man, almost equivalent to the "bad guys", the prisoners would be socially, people on the crime person also prone to Chen. In ancient society, crime is often a person hard to wash the stains.

All kinds of law in modern society is too much, people still fall foul of the law. For instance I, the total annual to receive a few tickets, or parking, or speed (speed limit of 30 kilometers, as a legal traps). There are also some people, crossing the road will be caught by the police, riding a bicycle with a person will be arrested. Therefore, people in modern society for the "crime" is already numb, many illegal things, spend some money (is not corruption) is solved. So, the modern society for offenders, often claim not discrimination, without prejudice, because had far too many people. In modern society, offend "criminal law" re thatpublic service person is not fresh. The ancient society "warn others against following a bad example" principle, is the modern society with "start with a clean slate". It seems through quantized punishment, harm violations can be offset.

The number of ancient law of society, the brief. If people don't read, listen to it. The number of law in modern society, the contents of the very complicated. People even college students, many laws also do not understand. "The Napoleon code" is generally considered the first important law in modern society, are still in use. The "code" to a tree in detail, a disc, a window. In the face of such a law, then how to promote legal education, people do not know the situation difficult to change.

People know who has studied law, more simple law is often more effective, more laws must exploit more complex. For example, the ancient law that theft is a crime. For many theft number of general did not make clear a regulation, stole much and sentencing criteria is not accurate contact. The modern law stealing is a sin, but, if you are stolen in quantities of 1000 yuan (Chinese so), has not yet reached the police file standard. The street caught a thief current, he stole only 100 yuan, a few days off. Let go, he'll go steal. This is a serious flaw sophisticated legal brings, it cannot prevent theft. Conversely, if there is no modern society super complex law, lawyers how living? How to find a loophole?

The modern society with the individual freedom as the highest principle, however, this principle will inevitably lead to a person's freedom to hurt others, so, the modern society has formulated a series of laws, set the boundaries for each person's freedom. The results, the limits of innumerable, Hao stars if, even deep within the family parents to talk to their children how to (in America, parents verbal abuse children also illegal), let a person suspect whether ancient or modern freedom, more free (now some city in its own window, clothes are illegal). Britain recently in the security context to install X-ray equipment, you can see everyone naked, to confirm whether or not carrying contraband. Believe that ancient people will not suffer the humiliation. This is some people said "the price of freedom"?

People often say a word, the law is lagging behind. In fact, it is a vivid metaphor, the law like "water control Dayu" father, everywhere in the loopholes, loopholes also block end results. But, as long as the drilling legal loopholes, can reap the benefits, then, who will not go to drill this loophole? Of course, will be drilled legal loopholes, must be very familiar with the law, say lawyers.

What is more, the modern society also publicized illegal can benefit this behavior. Watch basketball knows, a foul tactics in basketball competition. There are football, see does not block each other, to shoot, hurriedly foul, if the condition is critical, even in the area and don't care. Argentina star Kempes has done such a thing, the goalkeeper ran out, the other from the ball at the door, Kempes the ball with his hand in. Penalty kick, the other without penalty, Kempes became a hero. That year, as Argentina won the world cup champion. The essence of this strategy is, if foul penalty cost than I could gain the benefits of small, then I would rather foul. Who can say that this court intentional fouls and enrichment techniques, have not been utilized in the life? Call a foul on the pitch, in life is illegal. Therefore, if the ancient laws of society, is awesome, so, the laws of modern society is one that can be.

Confucius said, law can make people afraid of being punished not crime, however, the law can not let a person do not have the idea of crime. Therefore, the ancient society advocates the moral supremacy, moral can let a person produce less crime thought, flood control method is similar to "gun" son "Yu". However, don't get me wrong, there is no law in ancient society. Moral self-discipline cause offence occurred less frequently, and the consequences are, the maintenance of law and social cost is greatly reduced. In modern society, because of extremely complicated law, safeguard the legal work will consume a large amount of social wealth. Can say, without which a society in human history, like the modern society, the huge wealth to spend in the public security organs, military and so on a series of law enforcement agencies. The modern commodity economy free society, spent on law enforcement agencies (or violence organization) on social wealth, compared with any ancient society, whether it is relative or absolute amount, no doubt is unprecedented. Human freedom must be achieved to high pressure in the violence of the?

Western society often "no overall plan for a fundamental transformation". To get rid of religious captivity, advocated "freedom above all", the result is found, then the elaboration of the law to define the scope of "freedom", the law to a be at a loss what to do, eventually became the modern people can't get rid of the new constraints. Obey the law become a very difficult thing to do, in modern society, then, become homely food. So, also because of the lack of morals, we only see the crime can easily profit, often rush into danger. Even though there are so many law enforcement agencies, was also found not so easy, there is always a lot of rogue. If caught, as long as lawbreakers clever, know the law, is also likely to easily pass (want to teach you a few hands?). So, the law is as a joke. If the ancient society really there are many never committed a crime law-abiding person, so, in modern society, so people almost one couldn't find (except maybe the child).

Writing this article is not to say that there is a law, but to say, the law is not a panacea, legal flooding is a bad thing. Such as dense net of law, has started to hurt the freedom of modern man, is not really useful (e.g. USA aiming at all kinds of new terrorism). I hope that through the observation of another side, perhaps can let us see more clearly the limitations of law.

A harmonious society should be the first line of defense from the moral, if people do not consciously, beyond the moral bottom line, then by law to deal with him. The law should be after the morality does not work, the violence had to take out. The so-called "try fair means before resorting to force" is also. Modern society is just on the contrary, we lost the moral line, emerge in an endless stream over a variety of acts. In the face of a bad behavior, will take legal means tough. If the law did not have the means, we use the moral condemnation, useful and trashy who knows. The modern society for all kinds of violations to be "the first soldiers after the ceremony", the "ceremony" is not of much use!

So, if you have no morals, laws alone, it is difficult to achieve a pleasant social environment. On the relationship between morality and law, we should at least say are equally important. As for the past moral standard is suitable for modern society, modern people should have the moral norm like, really should seriously consider. Times have changed, the meaning of moral course in change, for example the past "men and women could not communicate between man and woman", now is clearly not appropriate, the main content of which is the so-called moral reconstruction.
