由内藤湖南首倡的六朝贵族制论，历经大半个世纪的研究论辩，已发展为一套体大思精的学说，影响深远，国内学界对此也已不乏介绍。但其发展史上的一些重要问题，如该学说在战前的影响力，第三代所持的“豪族共同体论”与“寄生官僚制论”论战的始末详情，及在概念界定、思路及视野上与宫崎市定等经典的贵族制论的重点异同等，目前还阐述不多甚至存在误解，有必要加以批判性的回顾。以往国内学界对这一理论的接受和批判，往往偏重于政治史的方向，但就其本义而言，文化史乃至整体的时代史才是其更富于开展前景的舞台。如果以日本史上的贵族时代、贵族文化为比较坐标，更会发现其创生之初便从后者得到启发，而家永三郎、津田左右吉等的日本贵族论正可与之相互发明，帮助我们更深入地理解这一学说的深层意蕴，以将其更有效地用于中古史的阐释。

A Critical Review for the Theory of the Six Dynasties Aristocracy: A Comparative Perspective        Lin Xiaoguang

The theory of the Six Dynasties aristocratic system, put forward by Kounan Naitou one century ago, is an important doctrine of Chinese historical studies. However, some important issues of this theory, such as its influence pre-war is still in arguement. The controversy between the “tribal community,” which was developed by the third generation of Kyoutou School, and the “parasitic bureaucracy” of Yano Chikara, is not introduced enough by Chinese. The differences of concepts, ideas and vision between the “tribal community” and the classic aristocratic theory are also need critically review. On the other hand, the acceptance and criticism of this theory in the past, tend to focus on the direction of political history, but in its original meaning, cultural history, or the overall history of the age is its more promising stage. The research by Saburou Ienaga and Saukitchi Tsuda of the aristocratic culture of Japan, show its inspiration for the interpretation of the aristocratic system of China.
