论死亡赔偿中扶养费的存废——兼谈《侵权责任法》第16条的解释

摘要

The alimony of victim＇s dependant is the independent part of restitution for infringement of right of life. It is the compensation for the damages of the dependant＇s interest . The alimony is compensation for death in the theory of innate injury system. Meanwhile , the theory of inheritances system doesn＇t exclude the compensation for the alimony. Above all, not only the idea that alimony and restitution for death exist side by side has become the consensus, but also the technology to deal with the relation between them well has been found in practice. Therfor, the alimony of the victim＇s dependant shoud be reserved in restitution system for infringment of right of life.%在侵害生命权的死亡赔偿中，被扶养人的扶养费是对其丧失的扶养利益的赔偿，具有独立存在的价值和意义。在“固有损害主义”赔偿理论中，扶养费就是死亡赔偿金，而“继承主义”理论也并不排斥扶养费的独立存在。尤其重要的是我国不仅在理论上已经形成扶养费与死亡赔偿金并存的通论，而且在司法实践中也探索到巧妙处理两者关系的方法。因此，扶养费赔偿应该在我国死亡赔偿制度中予以保留。
