意思自治原则在《法律适用法》中的扩张与限制

Expansion and Restrictions of Autonomy Principle in the Law Application Act

意思自治原则由合同扩展到侵权、婚姻家庭等诸多领域。《中华人民共和国涉外民事关系法律适用法》(以下简称《法律适用法》)将意思自治原则置于基本原则的地位,较民法通则大幅度提升了其在冲突规范中的作用并扩展了它的适用范围。作为我国国际私法领域立法的重大突破,有关当事人意思自治原则的规定符合世界发展潮流,甚至具有创新性,但是个别条款仍有待完善,需要司法实践的检验。

The Autonomy Principle has extended from the contract to tort,marriage and family,and many other fields. The Foreign-related Civil Relations Application Act of the People＇s Republic of China（ hereinafter referred to as the Law Application Act） takes the principle of autonomy at the status of the basic principles,compared with the civil law,which has greatly enhanced its role in the conflict specification and extend its scope. As a major breakthrough in the field of private international law,the parties concerned comply with the provisions of the principle of autonomy of the world development trend,even is innovative,thought the individual provisions have yet to be improved,and need test in the judicial practice.
