摘要
中国消费者受到外国产品伤害的事件屡见不鲜,但维权面临困境。中国受害人近年尝试去美国起诉美国生产商,尽管还未有胜诉案例,但通过调解获得圆满赔偿的案例不少。美国法院一方面通过"长臂管辖"扩大司法管辖权,另一方面通过"不方便法院"原则限制外国原告到美国起诉美国生产商。选择适用何种原则,完全取决于能否保护美国当事人利益。中国消费者应了解美国法律本质并加以利用,达到维权目的。产品责任跨国诉讼有诸多优势,是目前解决中国产品责任纠纷的途径之一。
Chinese consumers are often injured by foreign products these years, but faced with difficulty to maintain legal rights. Chinese injurers have tried to sue American manufactures in America these years. Though there is not one successful case, there exist many successful cases for mediation. American courts on one hand am- plify jurisdiction by ＂long arm＂, on the other hand limit foreign plaintiffs to sue American manufacture by ＂Forum Non Conveniens＂. How to select rules depends on whether to protect interests of American. Chinese consumers should know American law and use it to maintain legal rights. Transnational product liability action has many merits which is one path to resolve the disputes of product liability in China.
