论国际服务贸易统计范围的属地与属人原则

《国际收支手册(第五版)》(BPM5)中服务贸易的统计范围体现的是“属地”原则,而《服务贸易总协定》(GATS)中服务贸易的内涵体现出“属人”原则的特点,《国际服务贸易统计手册》中国际服务贸易的统计范围一定程度上较好地再现了《服务贸易总协定》中的属人原则。完整体现属人原则是未来服务贸易统计发展的重要趋势。文章简要分析了国际服务贸易统计范围从属地原则变化到属人原则的原因,以及现阶段我国建立体现属人原则的服务贸易统计体系的现实意义。

On the Principle of "Lex Loci" and "Lex Personalis" in the Statistical Range of International Trade in Service

The statistical range of international trade in service set up in BPM5 framework and the definition of international trade in service stipulated in GATS are characterized respectively by the principle of"lex loci"and"lex personalis", which are borrowed terms from law. The current version of"Manual of Statistics on International Trade in Service"has embodied the principle of "ex personalis"to a certain degree. The author concludes that to fully embody the principle of"lex personalis"may be the future development trend of statistics on trade in service. Several reasons are provided at the end of this essay to explain the change in the statistical range of international trade in service. Realistic significance of establishing China's statistics on trade in service based on"lex personalis"has also been addressed.
