外资征收与环境保护——不补偿环境征收之合法性刍议

由于环境保护关系到人类整体和国际社会共同利益,在外资征收的立法与实践中环境保护和外资保护应予一体化考虑,但现状却反映出外资私益优先于环境公益的倾向。从建立国际经济新秩序的角度看,为使发展中国家不致因环保因素付出不必要的代价,环境征收不应具有补偿性。而且,不补偿环境征收合法性根植于污染者付费原则、预防原则、治安权例外以及国际环境法义务优先原则。

Foreign Investment Expropriation and Environmental Protection

Environment consideration should be integrated into foreign investment protection during the international legislation and implementation, but there is a manifest tendency in the contemporary international law that the private foreign interests prevail over the public environmental welfare. In respect of the new international economic order, environmental expropriation should not be compensated so that developing countries would not afford an unnecessary cost for environmental factors. It is more important that the legality of non-compensatory environmental expropriation is deeply rooted in polluter pays principle, precautionary principle, police power exception and priority of international environmental obligation principle.
