论两汉司法与引礼入法途径

The Legislation in Two Han Dynasties and Ways of Introducing Morals into Laws

两汉时期是“德” (礼的实质 )进入中国传统法律的初期阶段 ,这主要体现在司法领域里。两汉时期的“引经决狱”具有中国传统的人文性和为政治服务实用性的特点 ,所以能够在司法领域里顺利地进行 ;司法官是“引礼入法”的桥梁 ,两汉时期很注重司法官的经学素养 ;同时 ,两汉的“引经决狱”具有原则性的倾向 ,这为礼法完全融合的《唐律疏议》一书的编撰提供了前提。这一时期的引礼入法司法活动对于我们今天的社会主义法制建设也具有一定的借鉴意义。

The Two Han Dynasties(West Dynasty and East Dynasty)are the primary stages of ethics beginning to compound with the traditional laws in China,and this can be seen from the administration of laws.In the Two Dynasties,convicting cases with Confusianism bore traditional humanism and practical characteristics, therefore it could be realized smoothly;judges played the role of bridge in the 'Introducing ethics into laws';the governments payed much attention to judges Confucian knowledge.At the same time ,convicting cases with Confucianism had a principle orientation which could be used as the basis of the edition of Tang lu Shu yi which was a best combination of ethics and laws.Introducing ethics into laws at this period can be a reference to the building of the socialist legislation.
