内容摘要：古希腊孕育了公、私法二元对立的政治法律理念，古罗马继承了古希腊公、私法二元对立的政治法律理念，并发明了公法与私法的划分标准。罗马法学家关于公、私法划分标准的理论，在资本主义国家的立法中得到了真正的实现。在20世纪，西方国家公法和私法划分的二元结构理论受到了严峻的挑战。传统的公、私法划分标准存在缺陷，这种二元结构的法律体系已无法包括新出现的法律门类。当代中国确立了公法、私法、社会法三部类构成的三维法律结构。从我国现有法律制度角度来考察，公法主要包括宪法法律制度、行政法律规范、诉讼法律规范、刑事法律规范，以及规范国家经济管理行为的法律规范；私法的主要内容包括产权制度、主体制度和交易规则三部分，如民法法律规范和商法法律规范等；社会法主要包括经济法、劳动法和社会保障法等法律规范。
