论涉外民事案件法律适用的正确路径——以我国司法审判为中心

Research on Correct Way of Application of Law in Foreign Civil Cases

随着我国对外经济交往的不断扩大,涉外民事案件的数量日益增多。与非涉外民事案件的法律适用相比,涉外民事案件的法律适用更具复杂性。它不仅需要把握法律适用的基本步骤,而且涉及到管辖权归属、民事关系性质以及法律规范本身的属性等一系列重要因素的确定问题。但是,从我国近几年的涉外民事司法判例来看,普遍存在着法律适用的简单化、形式化,甚至一些自相矛盾的现象,既与法律适用的基本理论相悖,也无法适应中国融入全球经济背景下的现实司法要求,亟待加以纠正。

However, from the foreign civil judicial precedents in recent years, there exist the situations dicature in the background of the globalization of Chinese economy. Therefore, the situations need to be corrected urgently.
