司法公开的宪法学解读

法治国家普遍将司法公开作为一项宪法原则予以确立。该原则蕴涵着深厚的宪法价值,体现出对基本人权的保障和社会正义的追求,因此在世界性人权公约中已经得到广泛的认同。我国学术界、司法界对司法公开原则的认知是一个逐渐深化的过程,司法实践以狭义的司法公开为基础,尚需进一步充实内涵。实现司法公开主要应从建立立体化司法公开模式、加强司法公开立法、以立法统一法院信息化建设、形成良好的司法与媒体沟通机制等方面进行审慎的考虑。

Constitutional interpretation of judicial openness

Judicial openness is established as a constitutional principle worldwide in legal states. It contains profound constitutional values, and reflects the protection of basic human rights and the pursuit of social justice. Therefore, it has been widely recognized in global conventions on human rights. In China, the understanding of the principle of judicial openness is a gradual deepening process in academic and judicial fields. The judicial practice is based on narrow sense of judicial openness, which still needs to be enriched. The effective approaches of realizing judicial openness should be considered cautiously from aspects of establishing multi-dimensional mode of judicial openness, strengthening legislation on judicial openness, unifying information construction of the court by legislation, and forming good communication mechanism between justice and media, etc.
