Abstract

Grotius’s theory of the foundations of law and morality follows a sort of middle way between rationalism and voluntarism. Grotius, far from both extremes, defends both the normative force of the will and the directive power of practical reason. On this basis, he explains that reason serves as the formal cause of law and the will as the efficient cause. Now, the command of the will alone is not yet valid as a law. It must conform to reason. Reasoning so, Grotius places himself within the scholastic-Aristotelian tradition. Accordingly, he holds the primacy of reason over the will and defends the eminently practical, i.e., non-mathematical, character of morality and law.

格劳秀斯的 "媒体之路

格劳秀斯关于法律和道德基础的理论是理性主义和意志主义之间的中间道路。格劳秀斯远离两个极端，既捍卫意志的规范力量，也捍卫实践理性的指导力量。在此基础上，他解释说，理性是法律的形式原因，而意志是有效原因。现在，仅凭意志的命令还不能成为有效的法律。它必须符合理性。基于这样的推理，格劳秀斯将自己置于学者-亚里士多德传统之中。因此，他认为理性高于意志，并捍卫道德和法律的实践性，即非数学性。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
