论罗马法中的人格剥夺

On Personality Deprivation of Roman Law

刑罚制度是人类文明的一种,作为对犯罪这种反社会行为的"否定之否定",刑罚制度中无疑会具有更多的强制性因素;一旦这些强制性因素被滥用,刑罚就具有滑向野蛮的巨大危险。而刑罚最野蛮的表现,莫过于否定"人之为人"的资格,在法律上将人由主体降格为客体。这种"人格剥夺刑"在人类历史之处曾经普遍存在。回顾罗马法中的人格剥夺制度,为系统研究"人格剥夺刑"的发展、演变及消亡可奠定必备的基础。

Penalty system as one of human civilizations is the denial to criminal behaviors with many compulsory factors, but when the compulsory factors are abused the penalty will be in the verge of danger. The most barbaric performance of penalty is the denial to the qualification of man, degrading the subjectivity of man to objectivity, which is very common in human history. The study of personality deprivation of Roman law will lay a sound foundation for a systemtic study of the development, evolution and disappearance of personality deprivation.
