在功能导向上,所有规则可以被分为控制性规则与促进性规则两大类别。其中,前者以对规制对象行为的控制为导向,后者则以对规制对象行为的促进为导向。统治型政府中的规则属于控制性规则,但在内容特征上,是一种任意性的控制性规则。其规定过于抽象和模糊,因而缺乏实质的控制效力。管理型政府中的规则是一种限定性的控制性规则,其规定具体而明确,因而控制力较强。服务型政府将掀起一场规则革命,使促进性规则成为政府规则体系的基础。但同时,控制性规则也作为一种保障性力量而存在于服务型政府之中。
All rules can be divided into two categories by their functional orientation, which are controlling rules and facilitative rules. The former ones are meant to control their object of regula tion, while the latter ones are meant to facilitate their object of regulation. Rules in ruling-oriented government belong to a specific kind of controlling rules, which are arbitrary controlling rules, Their prescriptions are so abstract and vague that cannot afford substantive controlling power. Rules in management-oriented government are determinate controlling rules, their prescriptions are specific and clear, making their controlling power tion of rules, making facilitative rules the strong. Service-oriented government will launch a revolu- foundation of its system of rules. Meanwhile, controlling rules will remain a protective force in service-oriented government.
