我国诉讼时效期间设置的根本性缺陷与制度重构——诉讼时效基本理论的反思与我国诉讼时效立法的重新选择(之五)

The Fundamental Shortcoming of Limitation of Actions in Our Country and System Reconstruction——The review of fundamental theory about limitation of action and our new choice when we revise the law(part five)

我国的诉讼时效制度存在普通诉讼时效期间过短、短期时效期间规定存在严重缺陷、时效延长有悖于司法确定性原则和最长诉讼时效性质不明等诸多方面的弊端。究其原因,既有理论上对诉讼时效制度的误解,更多是对前苏联诉讼时效制度的照搬。科学的时效期间制度应当根据诉讼时效的债权信用保障功能,依据民事债权与商事债权相区别,一般民事债权和特种民事债权相分离的原则,设置普通诉讼时效、长诉讼时效和最长诉讼时效三种诉讼时效期间,取消短诉讼时效,废止时效延长制度以维护司法确定性。

There are many defects in our limitation of action system , which includs too short general limitation, aggravated defect short limitation, limitation length object to judicial confirmation and Indeterminate quality of longest limitation. The reasons causing these defects are from misunderstanding of theory of limitation and transplant of limitation of action from Russia. If we want to construct scientific limitation system,we should debase on limitation＇ s foundation of detecting debt credit, and construct general limitation, long limitation and the longest limitation in light of the principle separating civil credit right and commercial credit right,general civil credit right and special civil credit right. In the end, we must abolish short limitation and limitation length to keep judicial confirmation.
