谁能为“不会说话的鱼儿”说话——以“原告资格”为核心构建我国环境公益诉讼制度

Who Can Speak for the"Unspeakable Fish"

传统诉讼理论要求原告必须"与本案有直接利害关系",但国外的诉讼理论与实践已对此作出修正并不断拓展原告的范围。解决人与自然关系的紧张是和谐社会构建的要义之一,环境公益诉讼制度构建则是此要义实现之一途。根据我国实际情况,从诉讼制度上要解决的核心问题就是原告资格。放宽原告资格是构建我国环境公益诉讼制度的基点。

Traditional litigation theory requires that the plaintiff of a lawsuit must have ＂direct interest relationship with the case＂ . But many foreign countries has mended this theory and enlarged the scope of plaintiff. To resolve the tight relationship between the human beings and the nature is a crucial element in constructing a harmonious society, while the construction of environment public interest litigation system is a way to achieve this element. According to the reality in China, the core problem that is needed to solve in litigation system is just Standing. A primary issue in constructing our environment public interest litigation system is the enlargement of standing.
