摘　　要：本文根据调查收集到的资料,通过人们的法律知识水平衡量指数,客观地对公众的法律知识水平做出了基本评价。文章从影响人们法律知识水平的外部条件和内部原因两方面对公众法律知识水平差异产生的原因进行分析,力图找出提高公众法律知识水平的方法和途径。In the past two decades, the establishment of the Chinese legal system has been widely noted. However, a society with established legal system does not equal to a society of rule of law in the modem sense. A legal culture that promotes the public＇ s legal awareness, knowledge of laws, and usage of legal instruments is one of the necessary conditions for establishing and maintaining a society of rule of law. Using data from the survey of ＂Institutionalization of Legal Reforms in China,＂ this paper examines the public＇s legal knowledge. Possible explanatory variables for the level of the public＇ s legal knowledge are examined also in this paper. We think, improving the public＇s educational attainments is the basic for increasing the public＇s legal knowledge and narrowing down the disparity between urban and rural population. Increasing the coverage of special educational activities about legal systems and making better use of modem media technologies can be effective ways to improve the public＇s legal knowledge in China.
