Abstract:As for the interpretation of treaties by domestic courts, two dimensions should be studied at the same time. One is static rules, which is to solve the problem of the rules of treaty interpretation by courts. The second is dynamic harmonization, which aims to achieve the harmonization of treaty interpretation factors, interpretation paths and interpretation results. As far as the static rules, the court should not adopt the rules of contract interpretation or the rules of domestic law interpretation, but the rules of international law interpretation. To be specific, the court shall interpret the treaty in accordance with the rules provided by the treaty to be interpreted and Articles 31-33 of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, which embody interpretation rules of customary international law. As far as dynamic harmonization, the court should take the interpretation results as the anchor, adjust and optimize the interpretation path, and choose appropriate interpretation factors or a combination of interpretation factors in order to interpret treaties. To be specific, firstly, the factors to be taken into account by the court include the usual meaning, object and purpose, context, subsequent agreement and subsequent practice. Secondly, in the interpretation path, the court should choose the appropriate interpretation factor or combination of interpretation factors according to the internal logic of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, and if the interpreted treaty itself has special provisions for its interpretation, the court should apply such provisions. Thirdly, for interpretation results, the court should abide by pacta sunt sevenda, interpret the treaty in good faith, deal with the connection between the interpreted treaty and domestic law, and should not exceed the scope of its judicial jurisdiction.
