民事实体法与程序法之历史源流解析--两者关系的再思考

从古罗马法与英美法上程序法的产生过程看，实体法与程序法虽然有一定程度的发展不平衡，但大致应为同步产生；从内部逻辑关系看，程序法不具有创制或发展实体法的功能；实体法规定的权利义务不应是诉讼过程的结果累积，其实现也不完全依赖于程序的运行。因此，与实体法比较，程序法仍应是第二位的。程序法不得违反实体法的规定，否则就等于否定了实体法的特性。

Historical analysis of the relation between the civil substantive law and the procedural law

Looking from the generating process of the ancient Rome law and the British law, though the development of substantive law was unbalanced compared with procedural law in a certain degree ,they appeared synchronously.Concerning the internal logic relations , the procedural law is not able to formulate or develope substantive law.The right and the duty stipulated in the substantive law should not be the result of the accumulation of process, and the realization of the substantive law does not depend on the movement of procedure totally. Therefore, compared with the substantive law, the procedural law still should be the second. The procedural law should not violate what stipulated ,in the substantive law ,otherwise it will violate the substantive law's character.
