Abstract

Abstract

The natural law theory of Spinoza suggests there are two characters of rationalism and humanism in the natural law.The rationalism is shown by the correcpondence between keeping natural law and obeying rationality.The humanism is shown in that natural law entitles people to an equal right of pursuing happiness.Therefore,natural law becomes the source of political legality and the value of political order.
