精神损害赔偿制度是现代民法损害赔偿制度的重要组成部分。纯粹精神损害虽脱离人身或财产权利受侵害之事实,但也对受害人的精神利益造成实质性的侵害,应予以保护。然而,纯粹精神损害的特性,使得其有限制的必要。英美法中的危险区域规则、当事人特殊关系规则、旁观者规则、赔偿金数额限制等限制规则对我国的精神损害赔偿制度在损害事实认定方式、责任承担方式、责任限制等方面都有借鉴价值。 Mental damage compensation system is an important part of modern civil law damage compensation system. The fact that pure spiritual damage is violated from the personal or property rights, but also constitutes a substantive violation of the moral interests of the victim and should be protected. However, the nature of pure mental damage makes it necessary to limit it. The rules of the dangerous area in the Anglo-American law, the special rules of the parties, the rules of the spectator and the limits of the amount of the compensation have a reference value to the system of mental damage compensation in our country in terms of the way of identifying the damages, the ways of assuming responsibility, the limits of liability and so on.
