我国大学章程的民间法解读

On the University Charter from the Perspective of Folk Law

为了证成大学章程具有法律效力,学界提出了三种理论:契约说、自治法说和公法说,但它们都存在缺陷。以民间法视角观之,大学章程应是一种特殊的民间规范。从司法角度理解,作为民间规范的大学章程应是一种法律渊源,可在一定条件下通过司法机制被纳入正式秩序。然而这并不能使大学章程获得法律地位和必然的适用性,唯有通过立法程序使大学章程上升为法律,才能从根本上解决大学章程的效力问题。

In order to prove the legal validity of the university charter, academic community has proposed three theories :contract theory, autonomy law theory and public law theory, but they all have defects. From the perspective of folk law, the university charter should be a special folk norm. From a judicial point of view,as a folk norm,the university charter should be a source of law. It can be brought into the formal order under certain conditions through judicial mechanisms. But this approach does not give the university charter legal status and inevitable applicability. It is only through the legislative process that the university charter is elevated into law that we can fundamentally solve the problem of the validity of university charter.
