我一直专门从事清代法制史的研究。特别近十年,我开始研究清代民间契约及民事审判。关于这方面的问题,前些日子我已在北京大学司法研究中心的研究会上作过一次讲演。因此,这次我想再展开一点,就“应该如何理解清代民事审判与西欧近代型法秩序的关系”谈一谈现在的想法,请各位指教。一开始思考这个题目,我就意外地感到这里孕藏着更深的问题。 I have been specializing in the history of legal history in Qing Dynasty. In the recent decade, I began to study the civil contract and civil trial in Qing Dynasty. On this issue, I gave a speech at a research conference at the Center for Judicial Studies at Peking University some days ago. Therefore, I would like to expand on this point once more and talk about the current thinking on how to understand the relationship between the civil trial in Qing Dynasty and the modern Western-style legal order in the Qing Dynasty. At first I thought about the subject, and I was surprised to find there was a deeper problem in my pregnancy.
