内容摘要：在中国的法家学史上，近代的法家学是极为重要的崭新阶段。这一方面缘于中国近代历史变局的压力和挑战，法家学必须做出回应；另一方面，“西学东渐”使近代中国的学者不得不面对西方的思想学术，西学也因而成为重新研究法家学的新动力和新资源。由此，“救世”、“富国强兵”和“法治主义”成为中国近代法家学的核心概念和思想主调。

The Drastic Turn and Eastward Spread of Western Learnings：Rediscover the Chances and Thought Resources of Legalists

Cheng Liao-yuan

Abstract: In the history of Legalists in China, the modern time is a brand new phase for Legalists. On one hand, legalists must respond to the stresses and challenges from the drastic turns of modern Chinese history. On the other hand, since eastward spread of western learnings have encouraged Chinese scholars of modern times to face the western academy, western learnings become the new motives and resources to restudy Legalists. Therefore, “salvation”, “enriching the country and enhancing the military force”, and “ theory of rule of law” become the core concepts and thought mainstreams of Legalists in modern China.

Key words: Eastward spread of western learnings; Renaissance of Legalists；Historical drastic changing; Western learning
