司法经验整合及其抽象化问题——从私人背景步入公共领域的法官经验

司法经验本身强调的不是个体的独特性,而是与群体不可分割的整体性。在司法实践中,现有非正式的“内部请示报批”和“执行规范性文件”制度共同构成了我国独特的司法经验整体化机制。但其抽象化的过程和结果,难以释放经验整体化的功能。我们应充分利用司法裁判本身所具有的规则和经验价值,形成社会可资共用的法律智识资源,以一种迂回的方式实现司法经验的整体化。

Integration and Abstraction of Judicial Experience: A Judge Starting on His/Her Public Career

Judicial experience per se stresses integration that is inseparable from the collective rather than peculiarity of individuals.In China's judicial practice,there are two informal systems to integrate individual judicial experience.One is "asking for instructions of a higher court," the other is "performing instructions from a higher court." However,the two systems fail to accomplish their expected task.This paper maintains it is necessary to reconstruct a rational system to pool and make full use of individual judicial experience.Judicial experience should be included in precedents so as to be accumulated as a legal resource shared by whole society.
