Research of Actual Conditions and Legal Dogmas relating to Business Tort in the Software-oriented Society

在所谓的“软件社会”中，通过金融投资或知识产权产生的经济利益比产品的实用价值更受尊重，根据侵权法，要求赔偿商业交易损害的诉讼数量增加。本研究调查了商业侵权行为的一些特征，对消费者与商家之间的交易和商家与商家之间的交易进行了分类；对于消费者与商家之间的交易，通过与受害消费者及其代理律师的访谈，了解消费者欺诈的实际情况，并整理了从案件报告、当地消费者中心通讯和上述访谈中提出的每个案件的内容和问题。关于与侵权有关的法律教条，我研究了诸如商业结构和诱导方式的违法性、公共政策、自由意志和相对过失、垄断价格和不当利润等问题。指出一般侵权法理论并不适用于商业侵权，因为一般理论大多是在人身伤害案件中发展起来的。为了促进消费者在商业交易中的保护，修订《反不正当竞争法》迫在眉睫。对于商家与商家的交易，我通过采访法律人员和层层、剪报和案例报道的方式，对国内实际案例进行了调查和整理。关于法律教条，我研究了反垄断法与侵权行为、买方破产时交付货物的返还、保险诉讼与侵权行为、不动产双重出售、滥用代理人权力、不当中断商业谈判等。

In the so-called "Software-oriented Society" where economic gains produced through financial investment or intellectual property are much more respected than the utility value of products, litigation increases in number claiming compensation for damages suffered from a business transaction under tort law. In this research, I investigated some features of business tort, classifying the transaction between a consumer and a merchant and that between a merchant and a merchant.As to the transaction between a consumer and a merchant, I tried to understand the actual circumstances of consumer fraud through interview with the injured consumers and lawyers representing them, and arranged the content and issues of each case raised from case report, newsletters of local consumer centers and the said interviews. With regard to legal dogmas relating to tort, I examined such issues as illegality of structure of business and way of inducement, public policy, free will and comparative negligence, monopoly price, and undue profits. It was made clear that general theory of tort law does not fit the business tort, since the general theory was developed mostly in personal injury cases. Revision of the Unfair Competition Prevention Act is urgent in order to promote consumer protection in business transaction.As to the transaction between a merchant and a merchant, I investigated and arranged the actual domestic cases through interviews with legal staffs and layers, newspaper clipping and case reports. With regard to legal dogmas, I examined anti-trust law and tort, recaption of delivered goods at the time of the buyer's bankruptcy, actio pauliana and tort, double sales of real property, abuse of power of agent, undue break of business negotiation and so on.
