环境标准治理的软法进路

Soft Law Approach to Environmental Standard Governance

作为特殊的软法形式之一,我国环境标准兼有软法与硬法的特征,但其软法功能未充分发挥。在环境管制向环境治理的转型过程中,我国应当充分挖掘环境标准中“软”的一面,释放环境监管中的市场力量,以回应国家治理体系和治理能力现代化的现实需求。考察我国环境标准治理的软法功能失调现状,亟须从明确环境标准的软法属性,建构私人标准规范方法、深化公众参与程序等方面予以完善,就特征与功能面向探讨环境标准治理的软法进路。

As one of the special soft law forms,China’s environmental standards have the characteristics of both soft law and hard law,but the soft law functions are not fully played.In the transition from environmental regulation to environmental governance,China should fully explore the“soft”side of environmental standards,release the market forces in environmental regulation,so as to respond to the realistic demand of modernization of national governance system and governance capacity.In order to investigate the dysfunction of the soft side of environmental standards governance in China,it is urgent to perfect the soft method attributes of environmental standards,construct private standards and norms,deepen public participation procedures and so on,and discuss the soft method approaches of environmental standards governance in terms of features and functions.
