诉前调解的合意困境及完善路径

The consensual dilemma and improvement path of pre-litigation mediation

诉前调解是有效化解日益激增的纠纷的一个重要措施,是推动社会治理现代化的重要一环。它完善纠纷解决体系,发挥着公正解决纠纷和司法为民的治理效能,弘扬和谐文化,培育现代法治精神。但在司法实践中存在着当事人合意“好意”化“、同意”化和“恣意”化的现实困境,应当对完善多元纠纷化解体系、优化诉前调解程序以及完善调解协议司法确认程序等方面进行完善,以期更好地发挥诉前调解的治理效能。

Pre-litigation mediation is an important measure for effectively resolving the growing number of disputes,and is an important part of promoting the modernization of social governance.It improves the dispute resolution system,brings into play the effectiveness of fair dispute resolution and justice for the people governance,promotes a culture of harmony and fosters the modern spirit of the rule of law.However,in judicial practice,there is a real dilemma of“good intention”,“consent”and“willfulness”of the parties’consent.Improvements should be made in three areas,namely,improving the multi-disciplinary dispute resolution system,optimizing the pre-litigation mediation process,and improving the judicial confirmation procedure for mediation agreements,with a view to giving better play to the governance efficacy of pre-litigation mediation.
