实证研究发现：在当代中国司法实践中，法院院长具有多元角色。总体上看，法院院长首先扮演着管理家与政治家角色，法律家角色则处于相对次要地位，大致形成“管理家一政治家一法律家”这样一种角色体系。当然，不同级别法院院长的角色扮演会有所差异，一般说来，级别越高的法院（中院、高院）可能更为看重管理家与政治家角色。形成这一格局的主要原因在于法院在既定政治架构中的地位、法院组织规模的迅速扩张和中国式法院管理模式等。无论是中国法院院长角色的实际扮演顺序，还是形成这种顺序的内在原因，都体现出中国司法相比于西方法治发达国家司法的独特性。未来究竟院长角色的定位会是法律家还是政治家、管理家，取决于诸多背景因素的变化。

The empirical study finds that： in the current judicial practice in China, the presidents of court play multiple roles. In general, they are governors and politicians in the first place and secondly are legal professions. So there roughly forms a role system of ＂governor-politician-legal profession＂. Obviously, there are differences in the roles played by different level of courts＇ presidents. Generally speaking, the higher level of courts （intermediate people＇s court and higher people＇s court） the more importance they put on the role of governor and politician. The reason why this happens lies on the position of court in the political framework, the rapid enlargement of court＇s size and China＇s court management pattern. Whether the real sequence of the roles presidents play, or the inner reason of that sequence, shows the uniqueness of China＇s judicial branch compared with those western developed countries under rule of law. In the future, the orientation of presidents＇ role rests on legal profession or politician, governor depends on the change of various background factors.
