精神损害赔偿在产品责任法中的适应性研究

Applicability of Mental Distress Damages in the Law of Products Liability

随着工业化的发展和技术的进步,因产品具有缺陷而致人损害的情况日益突出,产品责任法应运而生并获得迅速发展。产品责任法在当代的发展有其特有的思想和理论基础,主要体现了对消费者的保护和关怀。精神损害赔偿虽然会对传统侵权法产生某些冲击,但其在产品责任法中的适用却有其正当性。中国产品责任法未规定精神损害赔偿制度,因此有必要在充分论证的基础上加以完善。

With the development of modem industrialization and the advancement of technology, damages arising from defect products are attracting more attention. Thus the law of products liability gradually came into being and its evolution in modem society shows that the thought of consumer protection has been strengthened, Mental distress damages will surely have some negative impacts on the traditional tort law, but its application in products liability is justifiable. China＇ s law of products liability has no provisions about mental distress damages, so it needs to be improved.
