摘　　要：以道德原则执掌国政、治理国家。孔子在西周统治者一向秉承的“明德慎罚”的基础上提出了为后世儒家所遵循的“德政”理念。“德政”与“威刑”相对。“为政以德”并非不要刑法,而是突出强调道德对政治的决定作用,将道德教化视为治国的根本原则与方法。Governance of a state should be guided by virtue.Confucius proposed this philosophywhich was upheld by Confucians after him-on the basis of“the illustration of virtue and the cautious use of punishment”,an approach advocated by the rulers in the Western Zhou Dynasty.Governance based on virtue stands in contrast to rule by use of harsh punishment as a deterrent.It does not,however,exclude penal codes,but rather highlights the decisive role of virtue in governance,and regards moral edification as the fundamental principle and the essential means for governance.
