第二，法律的學者，他們所做的學術工作，並不一定與政治有關，除非是研究憲法的（而憲法是該學院一個強 項），而研究憲法又不但是研究政制；即使是研究政制，也會有不同的政治見解，像大家熟悉的陳弘毅，他與陳文敏的政見就不完全一樣，但是在法律界，大家都尊重他們的意見，在他們自己也不會看成是敵對的 關係。這是學術界的特點，也是優點：沒有辯論，就沒有知識的進步。: c2 a H9 L- ?: m: s

第三，大學的學者，各有自己的政治立場，也是常態。他們在學術工作上，並不一定需要政治表態。大學的招 聘、晉升，從來沒有政治的審查，學者可以有不同的政治觀點而共同專心自己的研究與教學；從來如此，全球如此，不然就不叫大學。其基本原理，是因為學術研究就是講究探索、實驗、辯論，不會事事講究「正 確」。學者們不必擔心學術以外的風險，這是學術自由的根本。公仔箱論壇8 Z# R1 p- X6 d

We begin by thanking the Law Panel of the RAE for completing a demanding and important task in such a professional manner, and we congratulate the Faculty of Law of The Chinese University of Hong Kong for its excellent achievement in the Exercise. It is a very good situation that all the law schools in Hong Kong SAR are collectively making a significant impact in Hong Kong, in the region and internationally.: f3 B- h0 r! W4 m

The Faculty of Law of The University of Hong Kong is the oldest and the largest of the three law schools in Hong Kong.Historically, it has seen its mission to be both a law faculty that responds to the needs of the legal system and legal profession in Hong Kong and as part of the international community of legal scholars. It has sought to produce high quality research and publications in a way which has a high impact in both Hong Kong and global legal discourse. As an institution the HKU Law Faculty divides its time and resources between them. The RAE report on us in fact reflects this dual mission. * j ^1 n& f$ K0 @+ I8 ^# [; O5.39.217.77:8898 2 b1 L9 w9 w/ j( l6 E& H; l5.39.217.77:8898The Faculty wishes to dispel the suggestion or implication made in some quarters that it is not doing well in terms of research. The Faculty was, and is, aware that serving its mission to contribute to the Hong Kong community in general and the legal profession in particular might mean that it will sometimes be at the expense of doing more work with a global focus, but that is a trade-off the Faculty is proud to make. $ i3 U4 Q: Z! ~+ S2 }TVBNOW 含有熱門話題，最新最快電視，軟體，遊戲，電影，動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。 ; g/ I, f4 H# ?2 H6 Y5.39.217.77:8898The Faculty does not, by any means, intend to convey the impression that it thinks that there is no room for improvement. It is the Faculty’s aim to be regarded amongst the top law schools in the world.The Faculty has been engaging in a wide-ranging exercise of institutional self-reflection and strategic planning. Many of the RAE panel’s suggestions on international collaboration and globally-focused research form a major part of our current research strategy. We shall, over the next few weeks, be discussing the RAE report very carefully to reflect on how we can do even better. Indeed, we are most grateful for the positive and critical feedback which the exercise has provided. 3 e5 r6 c* N j% `+ j, ~tvb now,tvbnow,bttvb 0 S' s5 [7 K; ^6 MTVBNOW 含有熱門話題，最新最快電視，軟體，遊戲，電影，動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。With the feedback gained from RAE and the continued support of the community, the Faculty looks forward to becoming even stronger in the coming years. 3 f5 z! c4 ^( R1 z1 w, w4 xTVBNOW 含有熱門話題，最新最快電視，軟體，遊戲，電影，動漫及日常生活及興趣交流等資訊。2 {' o& d' ?+ J/ h% a/ F, D: k
