吐蕃议事会制度研究

A Study of Tibetan Council System in Tubo Dynasty

吐蕃议事会制度是雅砻王国时代氏族部落首领共聚议事传统的延续。吐蕃议事会分为高级议事会与地方议事会,分别是高级和地方的权力机构。吐蕃高级议事会包括尚论议事会和多思麻议事会,其召集人为大论或尚论大臣,并直接对赞普负责。吐蕃高级议事会的议事范围,包括吐蕃民事、财政、征兵等事务。地方议事会的召集人为地方长官,同时接受上级官员的巡视监督。地方议事会的主要职权是协商本辖区内的部分军政事务。当地方议事会的决议受到质疑时,需提交上级议事会审议。

The Tibetan council started in the Yarlung Kingdom era,when tribal leaders got together to discuss clan matters.The Tibetan Council in the Tubo Kingdom can be classed into the central and the local council,of the central and local authorities respectively.The central council included the ministerial council and the mdo smad council,whose conveners were chief minister or ministers,both of them were directly responsible to the ruler,the Btsan po.The scope of the proceedings of the central council included civil affairs,finance and conscription.The convener of the local council was the local governor,and he was subject to the inspection and supervision of the superior officials.This council was in charge of the local event.When the local council's resolutions were challenged,the differences would be submitted to the superior for consideration and resolution.
