电子商务合同的法律环境:问题和对策

电子商务合同是数据电文形式的合同,我国《合同法》和我国目前唯一的一部电子商务法律文件《电子签名法》的立法模式,是通过扩大"书面形式"的范围,把电子商务合同也包括进去并承认其具有与书面合同相同的效力。但是,电子商务合同与传统书面合同毕竟具有很大的差别,而且根据最高人民法院关于适用《民事诉讼法》若干问题的意见第七十八条的规定,"证据材料为复制件"而没有其他证据的,"不得作为认定事实的根据",而电子商务合同又没有严格意义上的原件。在司法实践中,计算机数据等电子证据属于视听资料,证据力较低。为了充分维护电子商务交易安全,应当进一步加快电子商务合同的法律环境建设。
