The Preliminary Study Between Law And Music

Law and music in the modern academic research,especially in the field of legal research rarely attention by scholars,because a field represents rigorous and rational,the other area represents the sensibility and freedom,they respectively represent different characteristics of evolution of social civilization,both before modern society and modern society,they to the life world and national governance play an important role.The problem is that the close relationship between the two is invisible after entering modern society.On the one hand,music becomes a part of the living world and to some extent a "commodity" of free choice.On the other hand,the law is becoming more rational than the previous modern law and has become the main mode of modern national governance.From the perspective of the origin of characters,music was called "Yinlü" and "Yuelü" in ancient China,and "law" was the same word.The development of complexity of western modern music was also closely related to the development of philosophy and law.In China's classical literature,the treatise on music philosophy was first published in “Yue Ji”,which played a profound influence on the development of Chinese classical music and played an important role in the world music ideological history.In the book of music,there are clearly four types of "laws" in ancient times--the relationship between rites,music,politics and punishment: the law comes from rites,and the rites and music are originally a family,so naturally,the law must also come from music.Since ancient times,the law has always been accompanied by the color of power.Even today when we advocate the rule of law,the rule of law still needs to rely on the state's violent organs to guarantee its realization,while music is just like the "catalyst" in the cold world,adjusting to the fearful and evasive parts of the rule of law society.Because people's acceptance of music is sincere and sincere,music's "softness" can resolve the law's "ferocity" to some extent.Music's "catalyst" effects on law is usually reflected in its unique social concept and social morality.The moral factors contained in music communication process can help make up for the areas that cannot play a role in the implementation of laws.At the same time,as the purpose of law enforcement,music has a unique function in punishing crimes and preventing crimes.Confucianism advocates "harmony is the most precious" and emphasizes the harmonious relationship between people and society,which echoes music's stress on various rhythm,melody,harmony and other factors.In today's social context,it is the trend of world civilization to rule or govern the society by law,and governance by music can also contribute to the development of world rule of law.
