《民法典》第1088条对离婚经济补偿制度作出了较大幅度的修改，剔除了财产制适用前提的限制，这部分是缘于对家庭分工所可能带来的谋生能力下降问题的认识。然而，《民法典》第1088条条文仍相对粗疏，离婚经济补偿权的成立要件与补偿标准阙如，学界对此尚未展开充分研究，而司法实践则预期将迎来大规模离婚经济补偿主张的浪潮，故有必要对相关规则予以厘清。本文对比较法上的补偿理论及美国法律学会的相关规范实践予以借鉴，试图对我国的离婚经济补偿制度展开类型化构造。可主要将离婚经济补偿的补偿对象及其内容分为三类：第一类是对家务劳动贡献者劳动价值的补偿，该类补偿应注重与共同财产制的衔接，原则上以“离婚时可供分割的共同财产数额较少或者没有共同财产”“家务贡献方从未或者大部分时间未从他方收入中获益”两大条件为前提，结合具体事实作个案衡量；家务劳动的需要或者牵制还可能带来收入能力方面的损失，这导向第二类补偿类型——对作出重大牺牲一方的收入能力损失的补偿，在此须对《民法典》第1088条中的“负担较多义务”作必要扩大解释，以涵摄基于家庭利益最大化而作出的其他牺牲行为，此类补偿类型的成立以存在行为要件与结果要件为前提，需要结合具体事实对牺牲行为的正当合理性、以及离婚时的利益分配格局作出判断；现实中还可能存在的情形是，一方配偶资助另一方配偶参加教育或培训，另一方配偶的收入得到实质性提升，婚姻关系却在教育或培训结束之后不久便告解除，第三类补偿类型即是对上述情形的处理。本文还通过全职主妇案件的应用展示，简要呈现了三种补偿类型的适用可能。此外，本文还对离婚经济补偿制度的具体适用予以了探讨。体系上，离婚经济补偿制度与离婚经济帮助制度、离婚损害赔偿制度共同构成我国的离婚救济制度，三者应协调适用：离婚经济补偿制度的适用不考虑离婚损害赔偿所界定的“过错”因素，离婚经济帮助制度则作为兜底，如若获得相应离婚经济补偿，在判断是否符合离婚经济帮助中“生活困难”的要求时，应将补偿数额予以考虑在内。行使时间上，离婚经济补偿请求权可参照适用离婚损害赔偿制度的相关司法解释，根据家庭贡献方在诉讼中所处的地位不同而作区别对待。

Article 1088 of the Civil Code has made substantial changes to the divorce economic compensation system, extending its application to the common property system. This is partly due to the recognition of the problem that the earning capacity loss requiring compensation may arise from the division of labor during the marriage. However, the provisions of Article 1088 of the Civil Code are still relatively rough. The establishment of the right to divorce economic compensation and compensation standards are lacking. The academic circle has not yet fully studied this, and judicial practice is expected to usher in a wave of large-scale divorce economic compensation claims. Therefore, it is necessary to clarify the relevant rules. This article draws lessons from the compensation theory in comparative law and the relevant normative practice of the American Law Institute, and attempts to develop a typified structure of divorce economic compensation system in China. This article sets forth three kinds of compensatory awards that govern financial claims under Article 1088 of the Civil Code. The first category is the compensation for the labor value of the domestic labor contributors. Given the connection to the division of common property, in principle, the following two prerequisites should be satisfied: (a) the amount of common property available for division is small or there is no common property at divorce; (b) the domestic labor contributor has never or most of the time has not benefited from the income of the other party. The entitlement should be established on a case-by-case basis. The second category is the compensation for the earning capacity loss of the sacrificing spouse. It is necessary to expand the interpretation of "bear more obligations" under Article 1088 of the Civil Code to cover other sacrifices made based on the maximization of family interests. The establishment of this kind of compensatory award is based on the existence of behavior elements and result elements, requiring specific facts to judge the legitimacy of sacrifice and the distribution pattern of interests at divorce.The third category is the compensation for contributions to the other spouse's education or training. A spouse is entitled at divorce to reimbursement for the financial contributions made to the other spouse's education or training when all of the following are shown: (a) the claimant provided funds for the tuition or other direct costs of the other spouse's education or training, or provided the principal financial support of the family while the other spouse acquired the education or training; (b) the education or training was completed immediately preceding the divorce;(c) the education or training for which reimbursement is sought substantially enhanced the obligor's earning capacity. This article also demonstrates the application of full-time housewife cases to briefly present the applicable possibilities of the three types of compensation.The existing divorce relief system in China is constituted by divorce economic compensation system, divorce economic assistance system and divorce damage compensation system and the three should be applied in coordination. The application of economic compensation system should not consider the "fault" factors defined in the divorce damage compensation system. If the corresponding economic compensation is obtained, the amount of compensation should be taken into account when determining whether it meets the requirements of "difficulty in life" in the economic assistance system. In terms of the exercise time, the right to claim economic compensation at divorce can be treated differently according to the status of the family contributor in the litigation by referring to the relevant judicial interpretation of the divorce damage compensation system.
