8、合同严守原则之中。这些原则共同构成了情势变更规则的理论支撑，使其在复杂多变的现实世界中能够灵活应对，实现法律效果与社会效果的统一。Theruleofchangeofcircumstances,asanimportantsystemintheCivilCode,isdeeplyrootedintheprinciplesoffairnessandjustice,goodfaith,andstrictadherencetocontracts.Theseprinciplestogetherconstitutethetheoreticalsupportfortheruleofsituationalcha

9、nge,enablingittoflexiblyrespondinthecomplexandever-changingrealworld,achievingtheunityoflegalandsocialeffects.公平正义原则是情势变更规则的核心基础。在合同履行过程中，当发生不可预见的情势变更，导致合同双方当事人的权利义务关系失衡时，若继续履行合同将显失公平，此时应根据公平原则调整合同内容或解除合同。这一做法体现了民法典对公平正义的追求，保障了合同双方当事人的合法权益。Theprincipleoffairnessandjusticeisthecorefoundationoftherule

11、hisapproachreflectsthepursuitoffairnessandjusticeintheCivilCode,andsafeguardsthelegitimaterightsandinterestsofbothpartiestothecontract.诚实信用原则也是情势变更规则的重要法理依据。诚实信用原则要求合同双方当事人在合同履行过程中应遵循诚实、守信、公平、合理的原则。当发生情势变更时，若一方当事人利用对方困境或信息不对称，要求对方继续履行合同，将违背诚实信用原则。因此，情势变更规则允许合同双方当事人根据实际情况重新协商或解除合同，以维护诚实信用原则。Theprinci

14、faith.合同严守原则与情势变更规则并非完全对立。合同严守原则要求合同双方当事人严格履行合同约定，但当发生情势变更导致合同履行不能或显失公平时，若仍坚持合同严守原则将违背公平正义和诚实信用原则。因此，情势变更规则允许在特定情况下对合同内容进行调整或解除合同，这既体现了合同严守原则的精神实质，又实现了对公平正义和诚实信用原则的尊重和维护。Theprincipleofstrictadherencetocontractsisnotcompletelyopposedtotheruleofchangeofcircumstances.Theprincipleofstrictadherencetothec

20、byavoidingunfairlossessufferedbyonepartyduetounforeseeablechanges.情势变更规则适用于合同成立后，合同的基础条件发生了当事人在订立合同时无法预见的、不属于商业风险的重大变化的情况。这种变化必须是客观存在的，且是当事人在订立合同时所无法预见的。这意味着，只有当变化是真正无法预见且重大时，才能适用情势变更规则。Thechangeofcircumstancesruleappliestosituationswherethefundamentalconditionsofacontractundergosignificantchangesth

22、基础条件发生上述变化时，如果继续履行合同对于当事人一方明显不公平，那么受不利影响的当事人可以与对方重新协商。这一步骤体现了公平原则，允许受不利影响的当事人寻求公平的解决方案。在协商过程中，双方应当充分考虑到实际情况，寻求双方都能接受的解决方案。Whenthebasicconditionsofthecontractundergotheabove-mentionedchanges,ifcontinuingtoperformthecontractisclearlyunfairtooneparty,thepartyadverselyaffectedmayrenegotiatewiththeotherp

24、法院或仲裁机构介入。法院或仲裁机构在接到请求后，应当结合案件的实际情况，根据公平原则变更或者解除合同。这一步骤确保了解决方案的公正性和合理性。However,ifconsensuscannotbereachedthroughnegotiationwithinareasonableperiodoftime,thepartiesmayrequestthepeople,Scourtorarbitrationinstitutiontomodifyorterminatethecontract.Itshouldbenotedthatthepartiesmustfirstattempttoresolveth

30、演着不可或缺的角色。情势变更，即指在法律行为成立后至履行完毕前，因不可归责于当事人的原因，导致合同赖以成立的基础或环境发生异常变动，若继续履行合同将显失公平，因此允许当事人请求变更或解除合同。这一规则的存在，旨在保障合同当事人的合法权益，维护公平正义的交易秩序。InthesystemoftheCivilCode,theruleofchangeofcircumstancesplaysanindispensablerole.Changeofcircumstancesreferstotheabnormalchangesinthebasisorenvironmentonwhichacontractis

32、restsofthecontractingpartiesandmaintainafairandjusttransactionorder.从教义学角度对情势变更规则进行解释，需要深入理解其背后的法理基础和适用条件。情势变更规则的法理基础在于合同自由原则与公平正义原则的平衡。合同自由原则允许当事人根据自己的意愿自由订立合同，而公平正义原则则要求合同的履行不得显失公平。当合同赖以成立的基础或环境发生异常变动时，若继续履行合同将违反公平正义原则，此时就需要通过情势变更规则来平衡双方当事人的利益。Interpretingtherulesofchangeofcircumstancesfromadoctri

35、interestsofbothpartiesthroughtherulesofchangeofcircumstances.适用情势变更规则需要满足一定的条件。这些条件包括：一是情势变更必须发生在合同成立后至履行完毕前；二是情势变更必须是由于不可归责于当事人的原因造成的；三是情势变更必须导致合同赖以成立的基础或环境发生异常变动；四是继续履行合同将显失公平。只有当这些条件同时满足时，当事人才能请求变更或解除合同。Theapplicationofthechangeofcircumstancesrulerequirescertainconditionstobemet.Theseconditionsin

44、提起诉讼，请求人民法院根据情势变更规则作出相应裁决。在这个过程中，人民法院应当充分听取双方当事人的意见，查明事实，公正裁决。Theapplicationoftherulesforchangingcircumstancesrequiresfollowinglegalprocedures.Incivilactivities,thepartiesshouldfollowtheprincipleofgoodfaith,notifytheotherpartyinatimelymanneraccordingtotheactualsituation,andnegotiateonthechangedsitua

46、情势变更可能具有不同的特点，因此需要根据具体案件的情况进行具体分析。例如，在合同履行过程中，如果因不可抗力导致合同无法履行,当事人可以根据情势变更规则请求解除合同或者变更合同条款。在这种情况下，人民法院应当综合考虑不可抗力对合同履行的影响程度、双方当事人的过错程度等因素，作出公正裁决。Theapplicationofthechangeofcircumstancesruleneedstoconsiderthespecificcircumstancesofthecase.Thechangesincircumstancesindifferentcasesmayhavedifferentcharact
