我国亲子关系法之检讨——以历史、社会伦理为视角

Review of Chinese Law of Parent-Child Relationship——A Perspective of History and Social Ethics

亲子关系法是婚姻家庭法中重要的组成部分,我国在此领域立法与大陆法系其他国家不同,以英美法系"大监护"来调整我国家庭中的亲子关系。但是,中国从现代法治的开端起就是罗马法家族的成员,而且也有与大陆法形成相似的历史经历,用监护制度概括整个亲子关系,在我国是缺乏历史传统和社会伦理的有效支持,使该法的实施效果大打折扣。由于亲子关系法的特殊性,在将来的民法典的起草工作中,应充分考虑中国历史和社会伦理传统,制定出符合我国社会文化背景的民法典。

The law of Parent-Child relationship is an important component of the law of Marriage and Family, which is different from other countries＇ Civil Laws in this field. The “guardianship” of Common Law adjusts our parent-child relationship in the families. However, China is the member of the Roman law since the beginning of the modern rule of law, and it has the similar historical experience with Civil Laws. To sum up the parent-child relationship with the system of guardianship in China is the lack of effective support of historical traditions and social ethics, which reduces the effect of the law. Because of the particularity of Law of parent-child relationship, we should take account of Chinese history and traditional social ethics, make Civil Code accord with the country＇s social cultural background in the future.
