“坚持法律效果与社会效果的统一”逐渐成为法院系统检验审判工作的标尺。但是,由于对于“社会效果”没有正确的认识,法院一般以民众满意度和社会认同作为判决应该考虑的社会效果。法律是一种预测机制,能够给人们提供行为的激励,而社会效果在本质上也是对人们未来行为提供一种预测。法律效果与社会效果在本质上是一致的,因此,法律效果与社会效果是统一的。 “Adhere to the unity of legal effects and social effects, ” gradually become the yardstick for the system of judicial examination of the court system. However, due to the fact that there is no correct understanding of “social effects ”, courts generally take the public satisfaction and social identification as the social effects that should be considered in judgments. Law is a kind of prediction mechanism, which can provide people with incentives for behavior. Social effects, in essence, also provide a prediction of people’s future behavior. The legal effect and the social effect are essentially the same. Therefore, the legal effect and the social effect are unified.
