内容摘要：确立行政诉讼原告资格的目的之一是确定司法审查的范围。确立司法审查的范围，可以实现司法权对行政权的制约。中国司法权制约行政权的力量薄弱，需要扩大行政诉讼原告资格的范围。确立行政诉讼原告资格的另一个目的是防止滥诉情况的发生。但是中国民众有厌讼的文化传统，滥诉发生的可能性很低。我国目前司法实践中出现的行政公益诉讼案件，需要对原告资格的范围进行扩大。

Abstract：One purpose of establishing the plaintiff’s qualification in administrative proceedings is to confirm the range of judicial review. Confirming the range of judicial review may implement the restriction of judicial power on administrative authority. In China, the power of this restriction is so weak that we need to extend the range of the plaintiff’s qualification. The other object of establishing the plaintiff’s qualification is to avoid the abuse of legal capacity to sue. But because of the Chinese cultural tradition that the civilians are reluctant to sue, the possibility of abusing legal capacity to sue is quite low. In terms of the appearance of administrative proceedings for public interests in judicial practice, we need to extend the range of the plaintiff’s qualification.
