海域生态补偿基本法律问题研究

Study of Basic Legal Issues on Marine Eco-Compensation

海域生态补偿法律机制是利用法治手段调整利益相关者在开发、利用、修复海洋自然生态系统过程中形成社会关系的一种制度化机制。从制度化机制构成要素角度分析,海域生态补偿法律关系具有主体多元化、内容复合性、客体特定化等特点,并且海域生态补偿费的法律性质不属于海域使用金,而是一种生态修复社会责任承担方式。探讨海域生态补偿机制的基本法律问题,能为海域生态补偿法治化机制提供理论铺垫,并最终实现海洋生态经济良性循环和可持续发展。

The legal system of Marine Eco-Compensation is a kind of institutionalizing mechanism which conforms to the principle of rule of law to coordinate the parties concerned when they form a kind of relationship in the process of exploiting and repairing marine natural ecosystem. According to the main factors of institutionalizing mechanism,the legal relationship of Marine Eco-Compensation is characterized by diversification of subject,complex content and object specialization. Legally,marine ecological compensation fees are not part of marine fees. Instead,it is a kind of ecological restoration-fulfillment of social responsibility. The paper discusses the above-mentioned basic legal issues in the hope of forming a theoretical basis for the system of rule of law of Marine Eco-Compensation and promoting the virtuous circle and sustainable development of Marine ecological economy.
