摘要
司法在法治中占有非常重要的地位,法官的自由裁量权是司法权的重要组成部分。"自由裁量权该如何行使"是自古希腊以来西方贤哲们不断探求的命题,德沃金基于对实用主义的批判形成了法律整体性理论,目的在于否认法官造法的功能。从德沃金的角度看,法律的合法性应该来源于道德,法官自由裁量的依据应该是包括规则、原则和政策在内的完整的法律体系,法官自由裁量的方式应是建构性阐释。借鉴德沃金的整体性法律理论,我国法官自由裁量权的行使可以从以下方面完善:增强法官在法律体系内自由裁量的权力,重视法律原则在裁量中的作用,鼓励法官在案件裁量中阐释说理,将整体性法律论证方法适用于疑难案件的裁量中以寻求最佳答案。
The judiciary occupies a very important position in the rule of law.Judges’ discretion is an important part of judicial power."How to exercise discretion" is a proposition that western sages have been seeking since ancient Greece.Dworkin formed a holistic legal theory based on his critique of pragmatism,with the purpose of denying the function of judges’ lawmaking.From Dworkin’s perspective,the legitimacy of law should come from morality,the basis for judge discretion should be a complete legal system including rules,principles,and policies,and the way for judge discretion is a constructive interpretation.Drawing on Dworkin’s holistic legal theory,the exercise of the discretion of our judges can be improved in the following ways:to strengthen the discretion of judges in the legal system,to attach importance to the role of legal principles in discretion,and to encourage judges to interpret cases reasonably,the holistic legal argument method is applied to the discretion of difficult cases to find the best answer.
