摘要:

对魏晋南北朝制度进行过全面而系统研究的史家,当首推吕思勉先生,其论著有关北魏法制之内容也颇多发人深思之处。北魏作为一个少数民族入主中原的政权,在鲜卑传统习惯法和由汉字写成的刑律之间在司法实践上产生过很多问题。对于由此形成各种矛盾的解决过程是与鲜卑族的汉化纠缠在一起的,所以北魏当局的处理过程也包涵着很深的政治智慧,对后世也有着重要的影响。

Abstract:

As the foremost historian who has conducted overall systemic research on the system in the Wei, Jin, Northern and Southern Dynasties, LV Si-mian has contributed profound works concerning the law in the Northern Wei Dynasty. As an ethnic regime that entered the Central Plain, the Northern Wei Dynasty experienced a great many juridical practical controversies between the traditional customary law of Xianbei (an ancient nationality in China) and the criminal law written in Chinese characters. The solution of various controversies was entangled with the Sinicization of Xianbei people. Hence, the Northern Wei authorities showed profound political wisdom in the process of solving these problems, which exerted great impact on later generations.
