摘　　要：中世纪基督教会通过大公会议颁布过大量有关经济的法律,这些法律以保护教会财产为中心,约束教职人员的经济行为并调整教会和世俗的经济关系。由于教会法的独特特征,它以神罚和世俗罚的双重惩戒来落实法律。教会的经济立法行为具有很强的功利性和现实目的性,即如何最大限度地保护教会的财产不受侵害,而并非仅仅为了伸张神学伦理。神学伦理一方面为教会立法的正当性提供了理论支撑,另一方面则扩张了教会法的法律效力和管辖范围,使教会经济立法突破自身限制,对教俗两界产生了广泛影响。The medieval Christian church promulgated numerous economic laws through its Ecumenical Councils. The laws,which centered on the protection of church property,limited the economic activity of the clergy and regulated the church's economic relations with the secular world. The unique nature of canon law meant that its implementation could invoke a double penalty: punishment by God and punishment by the secular world. The church's economic legislation was strongly utilitarian and served an immediate purpose: it aimed to keep church property inviolate as far as possible rather than to simply extend theological ethics. On one hand,theological ethics provided theoretical support for the legitimacy of church legislation; on the other,it expanded the legal efficacy and jurisdiction of canon law,enabling the church's economic legislation to break through its own limitations and exert an extensive influence on the religious and secular communities.
