摘　　要：边沁不但是一个伟大的哲学家,而且在证据法学上著述颇丰,他激烈批评当时的英国证据制度,主张废除证据排除规则,提倡广泛而公开的交叉询问,并提出了证据法成文化的构想。作为证据法学的奠基人之一,这些思想对于英美证据法产生了一定的影响,但也存在着一些误区。这对于冷静思考我国的证据立法问题不无启迪。Jeremy Bentham was not only a great philosopher, but also a prolific writer in the field of evidence law. He strongly criticized the British evidence system at his time and advocated the abolition of the rule on the exclusion of evidence, the introduction of extensive and open cross examination, and the codification of evidence law. Benthem was one of the founders of the evidence law science. His thoughts, although not always correct, have exerted certain impact on the development of Anglo-American evidence law and can provide inspirations to Chinese scholars thinking seriously about the reform of the evidence law in China.
