삼국시대의 역사학에 관하여는 그동안 많은 연구가 되어 왔으나, 법사학(법제사)이나 형사제도(형정사)에 대해서는 연구가 미진하였고, 그 성과 또한 미개척 분야로 방치되어 왔다. 이에 따라 삼국의 법제에 있어서 형사제도의 중요성과 그 연구의 필요성에 조금이나마 도움을 주고자 하는 의도에서 각종 범죄와 사법제도·행형제도·속죄제도 등 형사실체법과 형사절차법 등의 고찰을 뒤로 미루고 형벌제도만을 연구주제로 한정하였다. 근대 이전의 형벌은 5형이 중심이었기 때문에 이를 바탕으로 7종(생명형·자유형·신체형·재산형·신분형·명예형·연좌형)으로 고찰을 하여야 하지만, 이 논문에서는 현행 형벌에 입각한 4종(생명형·자유형·재산형·명예형)으로 분류하였으며, 부수적으로 이러한 제도가 고려왕조나 조선조시대에 어떠한 영향을 주었는지를 살펴봄으로써 우리민족의 주체의식을 함양함과 동시에 앞으로의 우리나라 형정사의 발전에 보다 유익한 방향을 제시한다.

As shown above, these three Kingdoms amount to 1,000 years of the history of the Korea race, and there have been many studies concerning the punitive, political history of the three kingdoms. But these specialized and systematic studies are only partial due to the absolute shortage of historical materials, consequently we can produce no good research results, despite interest. Generally in any ancient law system, criminal cases include civil affairs as part of a mixed system, and a criminal system occupies most of the law system. This thesis results from the lack of present academic research at present on the ancient system, despite the importance of this system and the necessity of studying an ancient law system. This thesis tries to overcome this limitation of the present academic world by systematically contributing to the research date on Korean ancient punitive, political history and the history of the Korean ancient law system. To achieve these aims this thesis has established the following goals. This paper consisted by following chapters. 1. Introduction(Proposal of the problem) 2. The Punishment System of the Goguryeo 3. The Punishment System of the Baekje 4. The Punishment System of the Silla 5. Conclusion
