浅论我国民事反诉制度的完善

在民事诉讼制度中,反诉制度是一项重要的制度.英美法系对反诉制度功能的发挥持积极的态度,注重实用,利用反诉制度一次性解决与之相关的纠纷,同时对反诉严格区分为强制反诉与任意反诉;而大陆法系对反诉制度的功能持保守的态度,注重理论的完整性,严格遵守关联性要件理论.在对反诉作出深刻认识的基础上,通过对比英美法系与大陆法系不同的反诉观,利用我国现有的反诉理论,提出我国应当注重实用,引入英美法系的强制反诉理论,做为完善我国反诉制度的指向.

On Improvement of Civil Counterclaim

Counterclaim is an important system in civil procedure. Anglo- American legislators display a positive and practical attitude towards the function of counterclaim system, strictly categorized into compulsory one and random one, aiming to solve relative conflicts all at one time. The Chinese legislators, however, take a conservative attitude towards the function of counterclaim, paying great attention to the integrity of theories, and observing the theory of associated key documents. On the basis of the profound interpretation and comparison of the differences between Anglo - American and Chinese counterclaim systems, the author argues that improvement should be done to the present Chinese counterclaim system through the introduction of compulsory counterclaim theory, of Anglo -A- merican litigation.
