论转型时期民间纠纷的特点及解决机制

On the Features and Resolve Mechanisms of Folk Disputes in the Transitional Period

在社会转型过程中,民间纠纷会呈现出一些转型特点。如何来解决转型过程中产生的各类民间纠纷,是当前从事法学理论和法律实务工作者必须面对的课题。当前,民间纠纷呈现出的特点有土地和房屋纠纷数量比例大、纠纷所涉及的关系较为复杂以及民族性矛盾不够明显等。适用于这些纠纷解决的机制则包括和解、人民调解、行政调解和诉讼等。其中,调解在民间纠纷解决中具有重要的意义。为改进和完善民间纠纷解决机制,可采取这样几项措施,即形成一种多元平衡的纠纷解决机制结构、赋予法官更大的司法能动权,以及合理配置基层司法资源并鼓励各类社会团体或民间组织承担更多的民间纠纷解决功能等。

In the process of social transition, disputes among the people may bear some transitional features. It＇s a topic for the theory researchers and practitioners how to resolve all kinds of folk disputes appearing in the process of transition. At present, the folk disputes are featured by a large amount of the disputes over lands and houses, intricate relationships in the disputes and unobvious ethnical conflicts. The dispute-resolving mechanism consists of reconciliation, people＇s mediation, administrative mediation and lawsuit, among which the mediation plays a vital role in solving folk disputes.
