对环境侵权中的免责事由-不可抗力的反思

摘要

环境侵权责任因其特殊的无过错归责原则和因果关系的认定，“不可抗力”一直以来都是环境侵权的免责事由。但是，随着现代工业社会的发展和高新科技的广泛性运用，“不可抗力”是否应该作为免责事由引起学术界的争论。从全球环境伦理的价值背景看，重新审视和考量这一法律制度，不可抗力作为环境侵权中的免责事由是不适宜的。本文结合对“不可抗力”这一免责事由相关问题进行探讨，进而为其制度的完善提出建议。%Due to the special principle of“no-fault liability” in environment tort,“force majeure”has alwaysbeenanexcuse for immunity from liability inenvironmental infringement.
