Abstract: The legal norms of the Civil Code are not the entirety of the established legal order.The legal effects and value judgments of the implementation of legal norms, along with informal legal norms, constitute the content of the normative legal order.Legal methodology needs to unify the established legal order with the normative legal order.The functional interpretation model is a bridge for the established legal order to converge with the normative legal order, and it is an interpretive paradigm that overcomes the limitations of legal doctrine and social science law.Functional interpretation incorporates uncertain purpose interpretation into law, making purpose interpretation objective and acceptable.Functional interpretation integrates the policy and reasonableness of informal legal norms into law, realizing the social conformity of legal norms.As a revolution in legal methodology, functional interpretation can promote the establishment of Chinese civil law doctrine and further promote the establishment of an autonomous knowledge system of Chinese civil law.

Key words: Functional Interpretation, Civil Law Methodology, Civil Law Doctrine, Autonomous Knowledge System of Chinese Civil Law

摘要: 民法典法律规范并不是实定法秩序的全部。法律规范实施的法律效果、价值判断与非正式法律规范组成了应然法秩序的组成内容。法学方法论需要实现实定法秩序向应然法秩序的统一。功能主义释意模式是实定法秩序趋同应然法秩序的桥梁,是克服法教义学与社科法学局限的解释范式。功能主义释意把无所把握的目的解释融入到法律之中,使得目的解释客观化并具有可接受性。功能主义释意将非正式法律规范的政策与情理融入法律,实现法律规范的合社会性。功能主义释意作为法学方法论的一场革命,能够推动中国民法教义学的建立,进而推动中国民法学自主性知识体系的建立。
