身份制度是罗马法的重要内容。本文对罗马的身份制度进行了分析并认为,在古代社会,身份是人格的基础,是权利、尤其是权力的基础,是进行社会组织的不可或缺的重要工具。到了契约社会,不平等的身份制度被摧垮,身份概念亦实现了自身的平等化和私法化,现代民法上的身份权应运而生。 The status system is an important part of Roman law. This article analyzes the Roman identity system and argues that in ancient society, identity is the basis of personality, the foundation of rights, especially the power, and is an indispensable and important tool for social organizations. In the contract society, the unequal identity system was destroyed, and the concept of identity also realized its own equalization and private law. The right of identity in modern civil law came into being.
