论涉外民事法律选择模式的双重理性架构

On the Dual Rational Framework of Foreign Civil Legal Choice

规则与方法相统一代表了当今国际私法的发展方向,探寻涉外民事法律选择的"第三种进路"是国际私法理论研究的当务之急。规则与方法的关系事实上为"体"和"用"的关系,"用"之研究会导向对"体"之反思,"体"之反思会产生"用"之功能,我们不可能将法律选择中的规则和方法彻底地割裂开来。涉外民事法律选择包含法的发现和法律选择正当化两个层次,其中,冲突法内部证立的目的在于保证法律选择的形式有效性,而冲突法外部证立的目的则是实现法律选择的实质有效性。

The unification of rules and methods represents the development direction of current private international law,and exploring the Third Way is the urgent affairs of private international law practice. In fact,the relationship between rules and methods is not mutually antagonistic,it is impossible for us to separate them in legal choice. Legal choice is not only a process of applicable law discovery,but also the legitimacy of legal choice. The internal justification of conflict of law is to realize the formal validity of legal choice and the external justification of conflict law is to achieve substantial validity of choice of law.
