Pre-impound the vehicle! The latest release of the Fortress Court: these 10 people need to fulfill their repayment obligations within a limited time......
The List of "Lai Lai" and the Construction of the Social Credit System: A Glimpse of the Future from an Announcement
On September 22, 2024, the Fengze District People's Court of Quanzhou City issued a seemingly ordinary announcement, announcing the pre-seizure of vehicles of ten judgment debtors who failed to fulfill their repayment obligations.
This announcement, like countless similar announcements, is imbued with the majesty of the law and a warning of untrustworthy behavior. When we break out of the framework of the announcement itself and try to interpret it from a broader perspective on the construction of the social credit system, we can get a glimpse of the new trends of social governance in the future.
Traditionally, our definition of "laid-backs" has been limited to specific groups of people who have not fulfilled court decisions.
This definition is too narrow and ignores the prevalence and social harm of untrustworthy behavior. In today's highly developed informatization, personal credit has long gone beyond the scope of the economic field and has become an important social capital. From malicious reviews on ride-hailing platforms, to false transactions on e-commerce platforms, to broken promises to others in daily life, these seemingly trivial behaviors are constantly eroding the foundation of social trust.
It is necessary to redefine the "old man":
It is not a label, but a microcosm of a social phenomenon, representing all behaviors that break promises, break rules, and harm the interests of others. From this point of view, the announcement of the Fortress Court is no longer just a legal action, but more like a warning education for the society, reminding everyone that in the information age, credit is a pass, and it will be difficult to lose trust.
How does this announcement relate to the construction of a future social credit system?
It heralds the arrival of the era of data-based governance.
In the announcement, the court discloses the information of the person subject to enforcement and disseminates it with the help of social media platforms, which is the embodiment of the use of big data and online platforms to build a social credit system. We can foresee the emergence of more similar "untrustworthy exposure platforms", which will make the information of the untrustworthy public, forming a strong public opinion pressure to force them to fulfill their obligations.
It embodies the concept of pluralistic co-governance.
In the announcement, the court not only urged the person subject to enforcement to take the initiative to fulfill his obligations, but also encouraged the general public to provide clues and participate in social governance. This model of "people's participation and rule of law guarantee" will become an important trend in social governance in the future, forming a good situation in which everyone participates, builds and shares.
It embodies the principle of equal emphasis on discipline and education.
In the announcement, the court sternly warned the dishonest and reserved the opportunity for them to take the initiative to perform, reflecting the warmth and humanistic care of the law. The establishment of the social credit system should also pay attention to the balance between punishment and education, not only to make the untrustworthy pay the price, but also to guide them to rebuild their credit and return to society.
Building a sound social credit system will not happen overnight, and there are still many challenges.
For example, how to ensure the security of personal information, how to avoid the abuse of credit evaluation, how to establish a scientific and reasonable credit repair mechanism, and so on. These issues require us to continue to explore and improve in practice.
The announcement of the Fortress Court may only be a small microcosm of the construction of the future social credit system.
But it gives us hope and a more honest and better future. In the information age, let us work together to build a social credit system, so that credit becomes the most valuable wealth and integrity becomes the most shining label!
