摘　　要：法律解释是给予和索取理由的规范实践。法律话语的意义是由其在法律实践中的推论角色决定的。因此,法律解释不应当仅仅被当作探求法律意义的启发式方法,更应当被看作为司法判决提供证成的说理方式。文义、历史、体系、客观目的、主观意图等要素,与其将它们看作解释方法,不如看作支持或反对解释决定之正确性的解释理由。法律条文往往有多个意义选项,解释者需要选出其中的正确选项,将其作为适用于当前案件的个案规范。法律解释实质上是围绕解释决定的正确性,而对不同解释理由进行衡量的理性论证过程。Legal interpretation is a normative practice of giving and asking for reasons.The meaning of legal discourse is determined by its inferential role in legal practice.Therefore,legal interpretation should not merely be considered a heuristic method for seeking legal meaning,but rather as a way of providing justificatory reasoning for judicial decisions.Elements such as literal meaning,history,system,objective purpose,and subjective intention should be regarded not just as methods of interpretation,but as reasons that support or oppose the correctness of an interpretative decision.Legal provisions often have multiple possible meanings,and the interpreter must select the correct one to serve as the individualized norm applicable to the current case.Essentially,legal interpretation is a rational argumentation process that involves weighing different interpretative reasons to determine the correctness of the interpretative decision.
