惩罚性违约金界定标准研究

Research on the Define Standard of Punitive Liquidated Damages

惩罚性违约金的界定标准应当采"责任并行说"。惩罚性违约金的惩罚性在于其适用不会影响其他违约责任。与"损失比较说"相比,"责任并行说"更有助于实现惩罚性违约金的功能并明晰惩罚性违约金的界定。采"任一标准说"不仅在逻辑上有错误更会带来实践中的混乱。

The define standard of punitive liquidated damages should adopte＂the theory of responsibility in parallel＂.Thepunitive of punitive liquidated damages lies on its application does not affect other breach of contract.Compared to＂the theory ofloss compare＂,＂the theory of responsibility in parallel＂is more conducive to achieving the functions of punitive liquidateddamages and it can make more clear definition of punitive liquidated damages too.Adopt ＂the theory of either throry＂not onlywrong in logic but also will bring confusion in practice.
