In the modern society, the rule of god, the rule of morality and the rule of man have all gradually lost their basis, while the rule of law has become the main method for administering a country. Although the rule of law in modern time has played an important role in reducing social conflicts and maintaining social order, it is faced with the following dilemmas: closure and openness, internal belief and external pressure, certainty and uncertainty, universality and particularity, and norms and facts. The fundamental way out of these dilemmas lies in adjusting social structure, social relations and orientation of social value by building autonomous communities and moving towards the rule of law in the communities. |
