摘要
《權利與冤抑:寺田浩明中國法史論集》一書,是清代中國法律史研究的典範之作。寺田浩明先生通過對東西方法概念的比較和辨析,呈現了清代中國法概念、法體系、法秩序的獨特性,並剝離出與近代西方法秩序不同的類型特徵。作者以全局性、貫通性的分析框架,對清代中國的法律與實踐作出了概念清晰、邏輯自洽的解釋;並打通社會與國家之間的聯繫,描繪出較為圓滿的法體系和法秩序的整體圖像。作者將清代中國法秩序的形成原理置於法理學、社會學及政治學的脈絡中分析和闡述,展現出強烈的理論追求;不僅關注宏觀問題的思考與分析,對於清代土地法概念和慣例概念等微觀問題,同樣有細緻和精彩的研究。
The book Rights and Injustice: Collected Works on the Chinese Legal History of Terada Hiroaki is a classic work in the study of the legal history of Qing China. By comparing oriental concept of law and the western one, Professor Terada Hiroaki presents the distinctiveness of the concept of law, the legal system and the legal order of Qing China, bringing up a new type which totally differs from the type of legal order of the modern western society. Besides, he, with an analysis framework of overall-consideration and consistence, gives a clearly-conceptual and well-logic explanation to Chinese law and legal practice in Qing dynasty, while he also bridges the gap between society and the nation and depicts a rather completed picture of the legal system and legal order of Qing. What’s more, He analyses and describes the forming principles of the legal order of Qing in a combined perspective of jurisprudence, sociology and political science, having a great eager for new theory. He not only focuses on macroscopic problems, but also has detailed discussion on microscopic problems like Qing’s land law and the concept of convention.
