关于“欧洲法”

ON "European Acts"

"欧洲法"这一词在欧美广为流传。它指的是,某种法律突破国界的限制,适用于欧洲较广的区域。它不是指某个国家的国内法,仅在一国范围内有效;它也不是指适用于欧洲各国的国际法,只有国家才能成其正式的主体。"欧洲法",只是欧洲才出现的现象,它既是一个古老的题目,也是一个时髦的题目。之所以"古老",是因为人们一直认为中世纪曾一度出现过"欧洲法";之所以"时髦",是因为当前许多人已把欧洲共同体法比作"当代的欧洲法"。"

Historically speaking, European acts used to exert great influence on the developments of the West European society and its economic development. The changing situation over the postwar era, the founding and expansion of EEC in particular, has created new chances for the revival of European Acts. EEC Law has brought about significant influence on the present legal system in Western Europe, thus marking that the collapse is taking place within the legal system which is characterized by the concept of absolute sovereignty as its nucleus. 'Era characterized by state law' has become 'era characterized by co-existance between state law and EEC law'. Being still at its initial stage, 'integration of legal system' has its own limits and there is much to be desired of its development and improvement. However, it is beneficial for the consolidation and development of the alliance of the West European countries while its prospect will not be smooth-sailing.
