摘要
乍看起来,司法过程中的事实在法律面前处于一种完全消极的地位:它必须通过法律的裁剪、规范、加工,才可能进入司法结论。这也正是当前既有相关理论的一般认识。然而,如果深入考察作为司法活动前提的立法之本质就会发现,法律对事实的支配作用其实并不限于"加工",它还在很大程度上参与事实的创设过程。另一方面,如果我们剖析非典型案例的判决过程并对其影响作一种长距离的考察,则将发现事实有时又会反向催变法律。从理论上厘清法律与事实的这种双向关系,既可能有助于我们更准确地把握司法过程,也可能有助于我们更深刻地理解"法律(之治)是一种实践理性"这一经典命题,还可能有助于我们处理法治的普适性与正义的地方性两者间的困境。
At first glance, the fact in judicial process is just negative when facing law or legal norm for the former should be filtered, clipped, standardized and processed by the latter. This is the general understanding of related theory. In fact, after a deep exploration into judicial process, we could even find that law not only processes fact but creates the latter to a great extent. Furthermore, we could also find that fact is able to make law changed, too. To explore this relationship between fact and law clearly may be helpful for us to explore judicial process, understand the classic thesis＇law is a practical reason and deal with the problem of generality and locality in rule bv law.
