摘要
环境民事诉讼是现代法治社会解决环境纠纷的重要机制之一,对于维护公民合法权益、稳定社会秩序具有重要意义。当下中国的环境民事诉讼陷入了多重困境,一方面环境纠纷当事人在经济、信息方面力量对比失衡,原告无能力、或不愿意、或既无能力也不愿意提起诉讼;另一方面司法者不愿意、或无能力、或既不愿意也无能力审理环境民事案件;再者,有些地方政府不重视、隐蔽甚至公然阻挠环境民事诉讼的正常进行。我国环境民事诉讼的发展有赖于社会各界的共同努力,但其关键主要在于司法能动性的发挥和司法独立的实现。
Environmental civil litigation,as an important mechanism of settling disputes in modern society ruled by law,plays a significant role in defending citizens' legal rights and stabilizing social order.Nowadays,environmental civil litigation in China has been caught in a dilemma.On the one hand,the economic strength and information of the litigants in the environmental civil litigation are imbalanced and the plaintiff is unwilling or unable to take legal proceedings against the defendant.On the other hand,the judiciary is unwilling or unable to hear an environmental civil case.And furthermore,some local governments have not attached enough importance to environmental civil litigation and even covertly and overtly interfere with it.The development of environmental civil litigation in China requires that people from all walks of life make joint efforts,which mainly depends on the juridical initiative bringing into play and the juridical independence becoming into reality.
