术语“私法自治”的详细信息

英译术语:

autonomy of private law

汉语语境:

民法上的抗辩与抗辩权是一对极易被混用的概念。然而，二者在效力、行使方式等方面均存在重大差别。抗辩与抗辩权的划分直接影响法官在诉讼过程中所能援引的事实范围，还决定着义务人在业已履行之后是否可以请求返还，最终体现立法者的价值判断。作为请求权的对立面，抗辩权在构建私法自治空间方面具有重要地位。

英语语境:

The concepts of Defense and Right of Defense in civil law are easily confused. They differ from each other greatly in effects and modes of exertion etc. The distinction between them directly affects defining the scope of facts to be invoked by the judge, and determines whether the performance carried out by the obligor can be claimed back. Ultimately it embodies the value judgments of legislators. As the opposite of Claim, the Right of Defense is of great importance to the establishment of autonomy of private law.
