我国古代的保举连坐制度初探

The System of Recommendation and Implication in Ancient China

我国古代历代统治者为维护自己的封建统治,十分重视对作为统治机器的官吏的铨选和控制、管理,并创立了一套完整、规范的官吏管理制度。保举连坐即是其中之一。保举连坐制度是我国古代保举人才与连坐思想的合璧之作。从秦朝开始,直至清朝,这一制度都有立法规定,但具体的连坐方法有所不同。历代统治者都较重视对这一制度的贯彻实施。保举连坐制度在中国古代职官管理制度史上具有重要的意义,对我国正在进行的机构改革以及干部铨选也有可鉴之处。

In order to adhere to its own ruling of feudalism,ancient China's rulers attached great importance to the election, control and management,and set up complete and regular systems of official administration,one of which was the system of recommendation and implication,a combination of China's ancient spirit to recommend talents and be involved in implication. There was legislation for the system from the Qin Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, in which the ways varied. Rulers of all dynasties attached great importance to the implementation of this system, which assumed great significance in the history of ancient China's administration of officials. The system can also be used for reference in the on-going institutional reform and official election.
