Abstract: Actively cultivating the concept of the rule of law is an inevitable requirement for the implementation of the comprehensive rule of law.Therefore,we must establish a goal,that is,legal belief,which is expressed in the form of legal compliance,legal respect and legal worship,and in the content of rule consciousness,democratic concept and contract spirit;use two mechanisms,namely,legal moralization and moral legalization;and adopt three paths,namely,institutional incentive at the normative level,process experience at the practical level and publicity and education at the spiritual level.Among them,the system incentive mainly uses the moral legalization mechanism to train legal compliance;process experience and publicity and education mainly use the legal moralization mechanism to cultivate legal respect and legal worship.Actively cultivating the peoples concept of rule of law is a systematic project.In practice,we must fully implement the rule consciousness,democratic concept and contract spirit,realize the close cooperation and mutual promotion among the three paths,and finally form a systematic joint force to shape the socialist culture of rule of law with Chinese characteristics.

Key words: concept of rule of law, legal belief, institutional incentives, process experience, publicity and education
