近十余年来，在法院现代化、正规化、规范化建设过程中，人民法庭的角色在一定程度上被边缘化。然而，我国基层社会纠纷的有效解决正逐步凸显出对人民法庭功能的需求，人民法庭自身的条件也发生了重要变化。在新的历史条件下，应当重新审视人民法庭的地位与功能，把适当增加人民法庭的设置，合理调整人民法庭的区域布局，充实人民法庭的审判力量，强化人民法庭的功能，作为我国基层法院当下发展与改革的重要内容和路径。这既可以从S省P县法院相关实践中部分得到证明，更可以从司法辖域的相对限缩、人民法院发展的主导思路以及基层法院审判工作主要特性等三个维度得到理论阐释。

In the past a dozen or so years, people＇ s tribunals have been marginalized to some extent in the course of modernization, normalization and standardization of courts. On the other hand, however, the effective settlement of social disputes at the grass-roots level is gradually highlighting the need for the functioning of people＇ s tribunals. Meanwhile, major changes have also taken place in the conditions of people＇ s tribunals themselves. Under the new historical conditions, China should rexamine the status and functions of people＇ s tribunals, appropriately increase the number of people＇ s tribunals, reasonably adjust the regional distribution of people＇ s tribunals, furnish people＇ s tribunals with more man power, and strengthen the functions of people＇ s tribunals, so as to promote the development and reform of grassroots courts. The above approaches have been partly supported by the relevant judicial practice of a court in P County of S Province and can be theoretically demonstrated from the following three perspectives ： the relative limitations on jurisdictions, the dominant thinking on the development of people＇ s court, and the main characters of the adjudication work of basic courts.
