摘要
文章先对前人的研究进行了一个简要的回顾,前人学者一般都将古代的老小废疾制度辨认为中国古代的刑事责任年龄制度。文章对这种观点提出了质疑。通过对《周礼》中的"三赦"、主要朝代的相关法律条文及解释以及清代《刑案汇览》中相关案件的考察,指出了古代的"老小废疾"制度与现代的刑事责任年龄制度在理念上存在着巨大的差别。
This paper begins with a brief review of previous experts' research, most of which considered the 'Lao hsiao fei chi' system in ancient China as the ancient system of age for criminal responsibility. The paper queries this point of view. Through investigating the 'three kind of pardons' in 《Zhou Proprieties》, the relevant laws, regulations and legal interpretations in the main dynasties of ancient China and the relevant cases in the 《Xing-an-hui-lan》(conspectus of penal cases) of Qing dynasty, the paper comes to a conclusion that there are great differences in essence between the 'Lao hsiao fei chi' system in ancient China and the modern system of age for criminal responsibility.
