论环境侵权的因果关系

On the Causational Relation in Environmental Torts

环境侵权的非常特殊性决定了认定其构成要件之一--因果关系的极端困难性。因此,许多新的因果关系学说应运而生。然而,这些学说大都将因果关系判断标准问题与推定、举证责任分配、举证责任倒置、法律责任分担等诸问题混为一谈。笔者认为,在环境侵权因果关系的理论探讨中,有必要消除误区,明确研究目标,建立环境侵权因果关系判断的理论体系及标准。

The extraordinary particularity of environmental infringement makes the identification of causality , one of the constitutive requirements .extremely difficult. With the view of solving the problem ,a lot of new theories in this field are coming up constantly. However, most of them have a mix - up between the aimed problem and other problems such as the determination standard and inference of causality and the distribution of evidential burden and legal liability. The author proposes that we should clear up the confusion of thoughts and identify the aimed problem above all ,and, in a further effort , the author puts forward his idea about the establishment of the theory system and the determination standard in regards to causality in environmental infringement.
