对我国相邻关系法的历史解读

我国相邻关系法既植根于深厚的历史传统,又具有鲜明的时代特色。历史上,出于社会控制的目的设有邻里制度,相邻不动产利用的调节大多依托民间习惯。近代以来,部分民间习惯被纳入"民法",成为处理相邻关系的直接依据。面对复杂的现代不动产利用关系,《物权法》一方面规定了主要的相邻关系类型,另一方面通过引致规范扩张了相邻关系的法源。处理相邻关系的基本原则为协调不同法源的冲突奠定了基础。

A Historical Interpretation of Laws on Adjacent Relations in China

The adjacent relation system in China is deep rooted in historical tradition and has distinctive contemporary sense. Historically, the neighborhood system was established for the purpose of social control, applications of adjacent real property were adjusted mostly by folk customs. Since late Qing Dynasty, some neighborhood customs had been incorporated in the ＂codified civil law＂ and became legal norms directly ap- plied to adjacent relations. However, with regards to the modern complex real estate adjacent relations, the Property Law formulates major types of adjacent relations, and further extends the legal sources on adjacent re- lations by resorting to norms of other relevant laws. The basic principles dealing with adjacent relations lay the foundation for coordinating conflicts of legal sources.
