摘要
公民之间平等权利的实现是现代国家构建的基础,以男女平等权利取代旧有身份等级制度,是近代中国法律改革的主要目标之一。国家以法律为手段改造家庭的过程,也是现代法律作用于传统社会的典型案例。在以新法律改造旧家庭的过程中,妾的法律调处可谓典型案例。新国家从吸纳新道德观以改革司法实践,到以隐匿的立法方式废除妾制却又在司法实践中将妾纳入法律保护范围,再到赋予女性更多权利的方式鼓励其摆脱不平等境遇,可谓进行了从容留修正、名废实存直至鼓励消亡的渐进改革,也映射出近代中国法律革新的理念沿革与路径。在瓦解旧家庭秩序的过程中,新法律以延续而渐进的技术改革助力了新民族国家的构建。
As the equal rights endowed to citizens became the foundation modern states,one of the major targets of legal reform in modern China,is how to abolish the patriarchal system and replace it with the gender equality rights between males and females.In terms of the legal and judicial reform on concubinage,different regimes in modern China used the various methods,which included absorbing the modern morality to influence the judicial practice,denying the legitimacy of concubinage but offer legal protection for existing concubines,encouraging the existing concubines to get independence by endowing them the favorable rights.From keeping the legitimacy of concubinage with some modification,declamation of the illegitimacy of concubinage and toleration the existing concubines to create the legal context in disintegrating the concubinage,to the eventual abolish on the concubinage,the legal ideology and road map of legal reform in modern China could be figured out.During the process in building up the modern nation state,the legal reform contributed its unique characters in continuously replacing the patriarchal system with the"state-citizen"model.
