刘戈：集体诉讼和惩罚性判罚或可治食品安全问题之根 LiuGe:Collective litigation and punitive decisions or can treat the root of food safety problems

　　据中国之声《央广新闻》报道，长期以来食品安全问题是大家最关心的一个问题也是个非常棘手的问题，我们采取的办法往往是出现了问题就是要加强监管，在各个环节上增加人手增加审批的环节。中国之声特约观察员刘戈对此做评论。

According to the sound of China[Wide central news]reports,For a long time the food safety problem that people most concerned about a problem is also a very difficult problem,We take the method is always a problem is to strengthen supervision,In each link more people increase examination and approval link.The sound of China special observer LiuGe to do the review.

　　刘戈：这么多年来，这种办法似乎没有产生什么效用，反倒是更多的审批和监管手续造成腐败。另一方面给本来产品质量不太好的产品增加了政府背书，比方说我们会给所有的食品加一个QS标志，这个标志加上去以后大家认为这就是经过国家检验的质量合格产品，但是实际上我们任何人和任何机构都没有权利来保证这个产品的质量。

LiuGe:So for many years,This way did not seem to have any utility,But is more approval and supervision procedures cause corruption.On the other hand to the original product quality is not too good product increased government endorsement,For example we will give all the food add a QS mark,This flag plus to later everyone think this is after state inspection quality qualified products,But in fact we anyone and any institutions have no right to ensure that the quality of the product.

　　实际上集体诉讼和惩罚性赔偿的办法可能更能够在根源上解决这个问题。通过事前的监管不可能解决这个问题，因为我们食品生产的环节这么多，企业这么多，市场这么分散，我们有多少人力物力能够投到监管上，而又保证这些监管人员不被买通呢？所以国外通行的做法都是通过事后的惩罚来完成企业的自律。

In fact the collective litigation and punitive compensation method may be more able to solve this problem in the source.Through the ex-ante supervision can't solve the problem,Because we food production link so much,Enterprise so much,Market so scattered,We have many human resources can throw to the supervision,And to ensure that these regulators were not to buy it?So the practice of foreign traffic is through the ex post facto punishment to complete enterprise self-discipline.

　　我们记得在一九八几年的时候，当时有法院判例一些农民因为假种子的问题受到损害，最后有一千多位农民获得集体诉讼的赔偿，但在1993年的消费者权益保护法里面，由于当时在短期经济下更多的去维护企业的利益，只对那些造假的企业实行双倍赔偿惩罚措施，那么集体诉讼和惩罚性赔偿的话都没有得到支持，在这样一个情况下，企业的犯罪成本和犯错误的成本都非常低，所以它宁可冒着被监管部门抓到的风险也会去做假的事情。

We remember in 198,When a court case some farmers for false seed damage problem,Finally, there are more than one thousand farmers obtain the collective action compensation,But in 1993 the consumer rights and interests protection law inside,It was in the short-term economy more to safeguard the interests of the enterprise,Only for those false enterprises implement double indemnity punishment measures,So the collective litigation and punitive damages's words are not supported,In such a case,Enterprise's crime cost and make a mistake cost is very low,So it would rather take the supervision department caught risk will also go to make false things.

　　我认为现在不改变目前这种通过事先监管实现食品安全的思路，我们食品安全的问题不可能得到一个良好的解决。

I think now do not change the current through the prior supervision to realize the train of thought of food safety,Our food safety problems could not get a good solve.
