Beijing, October 27 (Xinhua) on October 27, the 102nd session of the "100 forum on core values" co sponsored by the propaganda and Education Bureau of the Central Propaganda Department and Guangming Daily was held in the form of "cloud propaganda". Wang Yi, member of the leading group and Secretary General of the civil code compilation project of the China Law Society and vice president of Renmin University of China, gave a speech entitled "Chinese characteristics, practical characteristics and times characteristics of the civil code" to lead the public to understand the civil code.
The civil code of the people's Republic of China is an important achievement in the construction of socialist rule of law in the new era. "To decode the civil code, we should start from the civil code's views on a series of basic problems faced by mankind. These basic problems include how to look at people, how to look at home, how to look at society, how to look at the state, how to look at human beings, and how to look at nature Wang Yi pointed out.
"The compilation of personality rights is an important innovation in the arrangement of civil code. This is a response to the new era of socialism with Chinese characteristics and the people's yearning for a better life. " Wang Yi said that the civil code confirms and guarantees the personal rights of civil subjects, especially natural persons, such as the right to life, body, health, name, portrait, reputation, honor and privacy, as well as personal information and personal rights and interests based on personal freedom and dignity.
Focusing on the issue of "how to look at home", Wang Yi said that many articles in the civil code have clarified and confirmed who belong to family members and how to coordinate the relationship among family members, and recognized the equal status, free will and personal dignity of each family member. "The Chinese understand that the family is not a small family, but a family; it is not a family in the ordinary sense, but a family. This is different from the view of "home" in many countries and nations. Therefore, the civil code has strong Chinese characteristics. "
Combined with specific cases such as how to protect personal information, how to perform the contract under the epidemic situation, who will bear the cost of elevator operation and maintenance, Wang Yi combed and analyzed the "how to look at society" in the civil code from two aspects of our current social background and how to coordinate the social relations between people outside the family. At the same time, focusing on "how to look at the state", Wang Yi said that the civil code has a clear expression on this, which can be summarized as two sentences: "when the state needs to appear, it shall not be absent" and "when the state does not need to appear, it shall not be offside.".
In Wang Yi's view, the civil code "views on mankind" is to build a community of human destiny. "The concept of" natural person "rather than" citizen "has been used in the civil code from the beginning to the end. It is hoped that the civil code can play a role in a wider range of human society and contribute to the construction of a community with a shared future for mankind." Wang Yi said.
On the issue of "how to look at nature", the civil code emphasizes the partnership between man and nature. Wang Yi said that the green principle has been further implemented in the civil code and fully reflected in specific legal rules such as property rights, contracts and tort liability.
At the end of the speech, Wang Yi concluded that the civil code has distinct Chinese characteristics, practical characteristics and characteristics of the times. "It can be said that the civil code contains the spiritual code of our nation."
