The early legal relationship is manifested in the following aspects:

(1) penalty relation.

With the intensification of the opposition and contradiction between slaves and slave owners, penalties and criminal laws aimed at suppressing the resistance of hostile classes have emerged.

The clan custom of homomorphic revenge and recognition of "lynching" was abolished and replaced by laws that stipulated the general penalty system.

In this way, the relationship between crime and punishment between criminals and victims becomes the relationship between punishment and punishment involving the state.

(2) contractual relationship.

The contract originated from the barter of primitive tribes.

When commenting on this origin, Marx pointed out: "In the case of underdeveloped barter, the individuals involved in the exchange have acquiesced that they are equal individuals and the owners of the property they exchange.

Extended data:

The laws of socialist countries are formulated by the people and protect their interests.

This is the basic spirit of socialist social law.

The basic spirit of law not only reflects the nature of the country, but also reflects social contradictions.

Law is the highest social rule, and mastering the law will control the destiny of mankind.

The laws of socialist countries should be formulated by the people, and the laws of socialist countries should be mastered by the people.

Only in this way can we ensure the purity of national nature and reconcile the effectiveness of social contradictions.

Legal provisions are dead, people are alive, and laws are designed to regulate the living, not the dead.

Legal instrumentalists regard law as a rigid tool and unchangeable dogma.

It violates the basic spirit of democracy and the rule of law.

Law is the object created by human society, and it is also a tool for human beings to liberate themselves, which in turn affects the development of human society.
