【摘要】：条约如同其他任何规则,都会受到时间流逝的侵蚀。时间的流逝如何及在何种程度上影响条约的解释过程是一个难题。近年来,条约演变解释已被证明是条约法最富有争议的话题之一。国际法院和WTO上诉机构的判例法支持这样的观点:如果一项条约旨在"长期有效",以及条约某特定用语具有"通用"性质,可能会产生其意义将遵循法律演变的推定。但是,大多数国际法院和法庭都未认可演变解释是一种独立的解释形式,其适用应当取决于在个案基础上对不同因素和推定的权衡。任何对术语的意义随时间变化的演变解释,必须产生于正常的条约解释过程。解释就是解释,不是修改或改写条约。其结果必须忠实于条约的通常含义和文本,基于其目的和宗旨,否则,其将导致事实上修改条约,由此使条约体制的框架解体。
[Abstract]:Treaties, like any other rule, are eroded by the passage of time. How and to what extent the passage of time affects the process of treaty interpretation has been a difficult issue in recent years. The interpretation of the evolution of treaties has proved to be one of the most controversial topics in treaty law. The case law of the International Court of Justice and the WTO Appellate body supports the view that if a treaty is intended to be "in force for the long term", as well as a particular term of the treaty, Of a "universal" nature, It may give rise to the presumption that its meaning will follow the evolution of the law... however, most international courts and tribunals have not endorsed the interpretation of evolution as an independent form of interpretation, Its application should depend on the trade-off between different factors and presumptions on a case-by-case basis. Any interpretation of the meaning of terms over time must arise from the normal process of treaty interpretation... interpretation is interpretation. The result must be faithful to the ordinary meaning and text of the treaty, based on its object and purpose, otherwise it would lead to a de facto modification of the treaty, thereby disintegrating the framework of the treaty regime.
