恩格斯以英国为例,批判了资本主义“法治国”的虚伪性。他指出,资本主义法律是资产阶级意志的表现,只是在形式上承认人人平等,是压迫人民的工具,并且自身矛盾重重。恩格斯对资本主义“法治国”虚伪性的批判,对于推进法治中国建设具有重要指导意义。社会主义法律应当真正成为人民意志的表现,保证人民享有事实上的平等权利,切实维护人民利益,并注重自身的和谐一致。 Engels, in the case of Britain, has criticized the hypocrisy of capitalism “rule of law ”. He pointed out that the law of capitalism is a manifestation of the will of the bourgeoisie and only formally recognizes the equality of all people as a tool for oppressing the people and has its own contradictions. Engels’s critique of the hypocrisy of capitalism “rule of law ” is of great guiding significance for promoting the rule of law in China. Socialist law should really become a manifestation of the will of the people, ensure that the people enjoy de facto equal rights, effectively safeguard the interests of the people, and pay attention to their own harmony.
