legal doctrines, principles, and rules

legal doctrines, principles, and rules 法律原理、原则和规则 这三个术语并无确切的含义,用法也不固定,但都被用来指各种法律规范,只不过在含义的广泛性表达方面有些差异。「原理」〔doctrine〕含义最广,它一般用来指一个由相关规范构成的实质性体系,它们有着共同的主题,是某些特定情形或特定领域内原则、规则和准则的有机结合,由此组成一个在逻辑上相互联系的体系,基于这种体系和逻辑内涵便可展开推理。这方面的一个典型例子是英美合同法中的约因理论和公共政策原理。「原则」是指一种概括性的规范,用来论证、统一、解释各种更为具体的规则及其适用,并作为进一步推理的权威出发点。例如僱主必须对其僱员的安全尽合理注意的原则,违约方应对定约时应在其考虑范围之内的后果负责等。「规则」一般指更为具体的规范,它可以将法律后果直接加诸某些事实,如遗嘱必须有两个证人见证才能有效的规则等。
