论我国法院调解制度的完善

我国法院调解制度存在的弊端主要包括:调审合一的制度设计使法官角色定位出现偏差,从而使调解容易违反当事人的意愿而丧失调解的特质;法院调解制度中的一些原则设置不尽合理;调解书这一法律文书的效力没有得到应有的强化等。对此,可以采取如下对策予以解决:实行调审分离的模式;废除调解制度中的查明事实、分清是非原则,增加保密原则,明确合法原则的内容;以及赋予调解书应有的法律效力,使其摆脱效力的不确定性等。

On the Improvement of the Litigation Intermediation System in China

There exist some demerits of the litigation intermediation system of China,which are: 1) the roles of the judge are deviant,resulting from both mediation and litigation,which easily leads to the violation of voluntary principle of the parties involved;some principles of mediation system are irrational;the legal effect of mediation agreements were not duly enhanced.Therefore,it is proposed in the paper that the following countermeasures could be imposed: separating mediation from litigation,abrogating the principles of ascertaining the facts and drawing a clear distinction between the right and wrong,adding the principle of confidentiality,making the contents of legality explicit;and endowing proper legal effect of mediation agreement.
