台江五村寨苗族习惯法中的结婚规则

Marriage Rules in the Miao's Customary law: With the Cases in Five Villages of Taijiang County, Guizhou

贵州省台江县是全国最集中的苗族聚居县之一。由于特殊的地理环境和历史背景,台江县较好地保留了传统的苗族习惯法文化。其中保留得最好,能够形成完整系统的就是当地的婚姻制度。历史上传承下来的结婚限制规则和结婚形式等制度与国家法并存,仍然发挥着重要的作用。

Taijiang is a county in Guizhou province, where the Miao people live in the most compact communities in terms of the whole country. The traditional Miao customary law has remained well in Taijiang because of the special geographical environment and the historical background. Among the Miao's customary law, what has remained best and kept as a whole system is the local institution of marriage. Passing on from the history and coexisting with the State law, the restrictive rules in marriage and the ways of getting married remain to function in a significant way.
