电子商务平台经营者审核义务的困境研究

Research on the Dilemma of Audit Duty of E-Commerce Platform Operators

随着互联网的迅速发展,电商经济已逐渐成为我国国民经济中不可或缺的一环,而作为其主要载体的网络平台,在极大地方便了人们的生活的同时,也为间接侵权提供了温床。《电子商务法》规定,电子商务平台经营者对平台内经营者的资质资格未尽到审核义务,造成消费者损害的,依法承担相应的责任。但是,在实际操作中,对于网络平台经营者的责任认定还存在着一些困难,进而影响到了消费者的合法权益。因此,有必要系统性地研究网络交易平台中经营者的审核义务,为确定其责任提供科学的度量标准,进而促进在线交易平台的规范化。

With the rapid development of the Internet, e-commerce economy has gradually become an indispensable part of China’s national economy, and the network platform, as its main carrier, has greatly facilitated people’s lives, but also provided a hotbed for indirect infringement. The E- commerce Law stipulates that e-commerce platform operators who fail to fulfill their obligation to review the qualifications of operators within the platform and cause harm to consumers shall bear corresponding responsibilities according to law. However, in actual operation, there are still some difficulties in the identification of the responsibility of network platform operators, which affects the legitimate rights and interests of consumers. Therefore, it is necessary to systematically study the audit obligations of the operators in the online trading platform, to provide a scientific metric for determining their responsibilities, and then promote the standardization of the online trading platform.
