轻罪时代的犯罪治理方略

当今中国的犯罪现象正在经历从自然犯到法定犯、从重罪到轻罪的历史转换,犯罪治理的策略也需要与时俱进,顺势而变。具体而言,轻罪时代的犯罪治理应该彻底摈弃严打重刑思维,从宽严相济转向以宽为主的刑事政策,刑罚应整体趋轻,更多关注出刑和制裁多元化,更加注重常态治理和依法治理,刑事程序制度也应更加轻缓与灵活,同时营造更为宽容的社会环境。

On the Crime Control Strategy in the Era of Misdemeanors

As the criminal phenomena in China today is undergoing a historical transition from natural offenses(mala in se)to legal offenses(mala prohibita)and from felonies to misdemeanors,the strategy as well as the tactics for crime governance must keep pace with the times and follow the trend.To be concrete,for the crime control in the era of misdemeanors,we should completely abandon the mindset of crackdown and severe penalty,transform the criminal policy from the co-existence of leniency and severity to being leniency-based,make penalty become lighter as a whole,pay more attention to the exoneration of criminal liability with more alternative san ctions,focus on the normalized and law-based control of crime,adopt more moderate and flexible criminal procedural system,at the same time promote a more tolerant social atmosphere.
