论《罗马条例I》对欧盟合同冲突法的发展及对我国的借鉴 * 谢宝朝 （华东政法大学研究生院, 上海 200042） [摘要]：在国际民商事判决的执行和非合同之债法律适用领域，欧盟已经成功地以条例的形式进 行了统一立法。但在合同冲突法领域，欧盟却迟至2008 年才将 1980年《罗马公约》转化为共同 体立法——《罗马条例I》。转化使得欧盟合同冲突法融入了共同体这一自足的法律体系，规则的 解释得以统一，和其他领域的冲突法规则得以协调。在内容方面，《罗马条例I》对《罗马公约》 进行了一定发展，适度强化了当事人意思自治原则；对客观选择方法做了较大调整，降低了最密 切联系原则的地位；以惯常居所统一了属人法；排除了客观选择方法中合同分割法的适用。这些 发展均以追求合同法律适用的确定性、可预见性等欧洲大陆国际私法的传统价值为目标。这些发 展对我国即将进行审议的《涉外民事关系法律适用法》中的合同冲突法部分的规则设计具有莫大 的借鉴意义。 [关键词]：罗马条例I；合同冲突法；统一化；借鉴 Rome I Regulation’s Contribution to the Evolvement of Contractual Conflict of Laws Rules and Lessons for China Xie Bao-chao (Graduate School of East China University of Political Science and Law, Shanghai 200042 China) Abstract: EU has successfully unified rules by form of Regulation regarding enforcement of international civil and commercial judgments and conflict of laws rules of non-contractual obligations. As to the contractual conflict of laws rules, EU has not transformed Rome Convention (1980) into Rome I Regulation until 2008. The transformation enables the contractual conflict of laws rules to enter into the self-contained legal system of community, unifies the interpretation rules, and harmonizes the terms and rules appeared in different legal instruments. The Rome I Regulation makes certain development regarding the legal schemes compare with the Rome Convention, including the moderate reinforcement of party autonomy, the relatively large adjustment on the objective approach of selection of applicable law; diminishment of importance of most closely relationship principle; the abandonment of contract split method in objective selection process, etc. In examining the Law of Applicable Law of Foreign Civil Relationships, we may draw some useful lesson
