情势变更案件处理的路径与策略

本文从法与理的结合上,对我国处理情势变更案件的问题作了新的阐释。文章认为,虽然我国民商法律没有规定"情势变更原则",但处理情势变更案件并无法律障碍。在法律路径选择上,涉外合同关系可适用国际惯例,国内合同关系则分情况而定:有具体规定时适用规定,无具体规定时,可以适用法定的"公平原则"。在适用"公平原则"时,应当注意操作策略:严格把握适用条件,并注意适用效果和严格的程序。

Reflections on legal approaches and tactics of adjudicating cases by employing the principle of changing of circumstances

The article, from the point of the combination of law and logics, explores a brand-new interpretation of our judicatory practice in adopting the principle of changing of state of affairs to adjudicate the cases. The article holds that although the principle of changing of state of affairs is not stipulated in civil and commercial law in China, there is no difficulty applying it in judicatory practice. With regard to the choice of legal approaches, the writer holds that international conventions can be adopted in contractual cases involving foreign interests, while the legal approaches in domestic contracts depend on the concrete conditions: specific regulations should be applied if the regulations are given and the principle of justice is applicable if there are no specific regulations. When we apply the principle of justice, we should pay great attention to the operation tactics: conditions of application should be strictly held, and the effects achieved as well as the stringent procedures should be paid attention.
