习惯法在国家正式司法或行政活动中未得到应有的重视,但其在实践领域仍然事实上发挥了规则的作用。以粤东北为例,习惯法与国家法在基层法院司法实践中的博弈,以及在各种调解活动和村民自治实践中的博弈,证明了习惯法难以估量的作用。 Customary law has not received the attention it deserves in the formal judicial or administrative activities of the State, but it has in fact still played a regulatory role in the field of practice. Taking the northeast of Guangdong as an example, the game between customary law and state law in the judicial practice of grassroots courts, as well as the game in various mediation activities and villagers’ self-government practices proves that customary law is invaluable.
