民法典学者建议稿信息结构及其参与者的社会网络

Scholars' Proposals on Draft Chinese Civil Code:Information Structure and Social Network of Participants

受公共财政投入不足的低(零)成本立法策略约束,当代中国民法典的立法者不得不委托与自己有强关系的学者作为主持人起草学者建议稿,试图在学者建议稿的基础上整合成立法草案。而同样受制于公共财政的投入不足,主持人也不得不选择与自己有强关系和同质性的人作为建议稿起草者,形成了一种存在信息结构性缺陷的参与人的社会网络,进而直接导致了起草者倾向于信息成本较低的西方法制信息的搜寻和利用,而对信息成本较高的中国社会自身信息的搜寻和利用较少,最终形成了民法典学者建议稿的信息结构性缺陷。为了减少甚至消除信息结构性缺陷对学者建议稿的制度性影响,必须改变低(零)成本立法策略,加大公共财政投入,建立需求导向型的法学创新和投资体制,强化起草设计与管理,优化起草网络。

As a result of low （zero） cost legislation policy and insufficient public fi nance investment, the legislators responsible for the drafting of Chinese Civil Code have been reduced from designers and managers to the mere implementers of the drafting work, and have been compelled to entrust scholars with whom they have strong connections to provide scholars＇ proposals on the draft Civil Code and then try to develop a draft legislation on the basis of such proposals. The latter, faced with the same constraint of insufficient public finance investment, also have been compelled to find other scholars with whom they have strong connections as draft ers of the proposals. This directly leads to the inclination of drafters to search and use lowcost western legal information, rather than highcost domestic information, in the drafting work. Such a drafting network with defective information structure has ultimately produced two schol ars＇ proposals on draft Chinese Civil Code with defective information structure. In order to re duce or eliminate the institutional influence of defective information structure on scholars＇ pro posals on draft civil code, the government must change the low （zero） cost legislation policy, increase public finance investment in legislation, establish a demandoriented innovative legal research system, strengthen the design and management of lawdrafting work, and optimize the draing network.
