尊敬的张文显会长、塞萨尔·兰达主席、乌拉·柳库恩主任、李林所长以及出席今天论坛的应松年教授、中村民雄所长等中外嘉宾，大家上午好！

很高兴在深秋的北京迎来了中国社会科学论坛（2016·法治）的如期举行。作为东道主，我们在这里见到了很多老朋友，也结识了很多新朋友。从2011年中国社会科学论坛（2011·法治）开坛以来，我们跟中外嘉宾一起共同走过了六个春秋。我们来自五湖四海，为了一个共同的目标，这就是为着人类最美好的组织方式和制度模式的基础价值—法治的内涵，不遗余力地努力地思考和探寻着。毋庸置疑，从2011年的法治与社会管理创新，我们一路走来，先后就法治与科学发展、法治与反腐治权、依法治国与法治中国、依法治国与司法改革等等与法治价值和中国当代法治建设紧密相关的重大理论问题和实践问题进行了深入和富有成效的探讨。今天，我们在回顾以往论坛研讨成就的基础上，就“法制改革与法治发展：比较的视角”进行全新和全方位的探讨，我相信，在与会中外嘉宾的共同努力下，我们一定会再接再厉，取得又一个成功。

在过去的十天里，中国执政党—中国共产党举行了十八届六中全会。六中全会高举起法治的旗帜，同时把全面从严治党与全面推进依法治国有机结合起来，为了中国的未来勾画了一个美好的制度图景，我们期待着，中国会迎来一个法治的新春天。

I need thank all of you to participate in the CASS Forum and International Symposium on Rule of Law and express my honest greeting to you on behalf of Law Institute of Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. Rule of Law represents common value of human being in the field of institutional construction. No matter what kinds of norms hint the content and meaning of rule of law in different legal culture, for example, rechtstaat , L'état de droit ，верховенство права ，Estado de derecho and 立憲主义, all of us believe that rule of law can’t be defeated by autocracy. We should make efforts to build the perfect legal system with special characteristic , we have a long way in accomplishing complete institutions. We need change experiences in governing the state and the society, this is a main target for us on the basis of rule of law forum.

Dear participants, distinguished guests, we have a common and similar dream , that of rule of law .We are striving to pursue the core value encompassed by rule of law. Respecting the governing principle of rule of law will bring a more bright future.

Finally, I hope we can establish an international network of rule of law forum through our constant communication and efforts in the coming future. China’s dream , firstly can be seen as the dream of rule of law in some degree. We are sure we could welcome the spring of rule of law as long as we won’t stop our step.

Thanks a lot. 谢谢 .
