诉讼证据的现代解构

"证据"是证据法学研究的基石。厘清证据的界限,进行正本清源式的研究,对指导证据理论和实践意义重大。对时下证据法学界仍流行的两种证据观"客观事实说"和"经验事实说"进行了剖析,认为二者尽管从不同侧面揭示了证据的某种特性,但都不足以解释我国证据运用的实践,都存在着哲学依据、时空视域以及诉讼价值上无法克服的缺憾,证据概念的内涵急需澄清。在此基础上对证据进行理性界定,认为证据应是包含有证据信息并用于证明事实主张的根据。从功用角度对证据所作的这一定义,能够应对证据理论和实践上的危机和难题。

Modern Construction on Procedural Evidence

"Evidence" is the cornerstone of theoretical research on evidence law.It's important to guide evidence theory and practice that we define the notion of evidence.This article analyses the two popular viewpoints of "objective facts" and "experiential facts" in the notions of evidence.Although they reveal some character of evidence from various angles,they are not enough to explain the application practice of evidence,and both have unconquerable defects in the aspects of philosophic foundation,time threshold and procedural value.So,clarifying the connotation of the notion of evidence is very necessary.Based on these,this article defines evidence and thinks evidence should be the foundation which includes information and is used to testify the fact propositions.The definition obtained from the angle of function can deal with the crises and posers in evidence theory and practice.
