论中国古代刑事诉讼中对女性的特殊保护

On Special Protection For Women In Chinese Ancient Criminal Lawsuit

女性在封建社会只是男权政治的辅助角色 ,但这并不意味着女性完全失去了在社会和家庭中的地位 :家长权在一定程度上冲淡了父权色彩、血缘伦理人情破坏了父权制、“夫荣妻贵”传统也提高了女性在社会上的地位。中国古代对女性特殊保护分别体现在刑事审讯、囚禁制度、行刑制度和株连制度中。古代立法对女性给予特殊保护体现了较高的立法水平 ,当然在某种程度上也显示了立法者总体上对女性认识的片面和歧视。

Women only play an assistant role in male chauvinist politics of feudalist sociey, but this doesn't mean that women fully lose their status in the society and family: householder power weakens paternal power to certain extent, blood relationship, ethics and human feelings disintegrate patriarchy, the tradition that 'A woman of low birth may marry into the purple' also raises women's status in society. Special protection for women in ancient China is respectively reflected in criminal inquest, system of imprisonment, system of execution and system of implication. Special protection for women in ancient legislation manifests higher legislative level, but also shows the legislators' unilateral and discriminatory views about women on the whole to a certain degree.
