What is the basic way of the origin of China law?

The basic characteristics of the origin of China law;

1. Strong consanguineous blood color. At the beginning of the formation of China state, although it basically possessed all the characteristics of the state in appearance, within the ruling class, people's social status was still determined to a considerable extent according to the distance of blood relationship, and society was also organized and managed according to the traditional ruling mode of patriarchal clan system.

2. Patriarchal centralized rule is the basic rule. It is related to the strong patriarchal blood characteristics. The Xia Dynasty practiced the unity of family and country, the monarch was the highest parent of all subjects, and the aristocrats were the parents of all families. They held official positions and formed paternalistic management of the whole society. Therefore, centralized patriarchal clan system was the basic rule of China in ancient times at the beginning of the country's formation. For thousands of years, China's politics was based on a centralized autocratic system. The rulers in history regarded their parents as themselves and the people as ignorant children. Therefore, China's ancient laws became more and more autocratic.

3. Law and morality are integrated into one, and the boundaries are unclear. Due to the strong kinship and the existence of corresponding ethical concepts, at the beginning of the formation of China, law, punishment and ethical norms were used together as the basic means to regulate society. There is no clear boundary between law and morality. They are both external and internal.

4. Criminal laws and regulations are relatively developed, while civil laws and regulations are relatively backward. In order to maintain the absolute monarchy and suppress the fierce resistance of enslaved tribes, civilians and slaves, the rulers of Xia Dynasty attached great importance to the use of criminal law to stabilize the political power of slave countries, which made criminal law occupy a primary position in the laws of early Xia Dynasty.
