Classification and Comparison:Two Approaches to the Governance of Persons
Governance is the order-making process.All order is order of persons,and all governance is governance of persons.The governance of persons must respond to the innermost concerns of persons,because persons are evaluative beings who always want to prove and be recognized for their values.In summary,every order is essentially a value order,and governance is the process of producing a value order.There are two main ways to produce a value order,namely classification and comparison.Classification refers to the categorization of persons and their value-creating behaviors into different value categories in order to clarify the aspects in which different persons actually create value,and thus clarify the uniqueness and commonality of persons as value subjects.Comparison refers to the use of the same yardstick to measure different persons and their value-creating behaviors in order to determine how much value each individual actually creates,and thus determine the hierarchical relationship of persons as value subjects.Based on these two approaches,two modes of governance have also been developed:governance by classification and governance by comparison.
