秦与汉初里民生活略论

Life of People at the Grass-roots Level in Qin and Early Han Dynasties

秦与汉初由于国家授田制得以有效推行,加上当时以宗族豪强为核心的社会势力尚不发达,国家能够通过行政手段实现对基层百姓的有效控制。这一时期,里吏是国家行政权力的忠实履行者,以国家行政为最高准则,而里民生活的方方面面更透露出较强的行政性,西汉中期以后社会势力作用下所谓的自治特征尚不明显。这些充分反映了当时国家的基层统治理念。

The effective enforcement of farmland system and undeveloped patriarchal clancentered social power result in complete administrative control of the government over people at the grass - roots level. The compulsory administration of local officials reflecs the management concept of feudal rulers in Qin and early Han Dynasties.
