论藏族民间法的当代价值

On Contemporary Value of Tibetan Folk Law

民间法是相对于国家法的一种学术语言,指那些在民间社会发挥"准法律"作用的习惯法规范。当代藏族社会的民间法是历史上形成的,迄今依旧发挥作用的民间规则。民间法与国家法的关系十分复杂,既有相辅相成之处,也有矛盾冲突的领域。在当代中国,民间法的社会作用无疑是不能全盘否定的,对此进行科学的研究对于完善社会主义法律体系是十分必要的。

Folk law is an academic language relative to national law. We mean a customary law norms which gives play to quasi--juristic effect in civil society. The folk law of contemporary Tibetan society di rects those folk roles which formed in history and still have brought into play so far. The relation between folk law and national law is pretty complex, they not only supplement each other, but also conflict with each other. In contemporary Chinese society, there is no doubt that the social role of folk law can＇t be ne- gated totally, therefore, it is essential for perfecting the socialist legal system to study scientifically.
