澳大利亚反恐怖主义立法述评

为应对日益严重的恐怖主义威胁,澳大利亚加快了反恐怖主义立法的进程,澳大利亚反恐怖主义法对基础性概念进行界定,增设了恐怖主义犯罪罪名,完善恐怖主义犯罪的诉讼程序,对有关部门进行特殊授权,并且严格了对澳大利亚本土的防范措施.澳大利亚反恐怖主义立法采用附属式的立法模式,并涉及预防、处置及制裁等多重内容,体现了普通法系的"程序优先"的特征,极大地扩张了国家行政权力.随着反恐斗争的开展,普通法系国家愈加重视制定法的作用.但是,反恐怖主义立法引发的人权问题、民族问题和宗教问题也是值得深思的.

Introduction of Australian Anti-terrorism Legislation

In order to cope with the increasingly serious threats of terrorism, Australia has made anti-terrorism legislation which defines the essential conceptions,sets up the new terrorism crimes, rectifies the criminal procedures of terrorism crimes, gives some organizations the special power, and develops the preventative measures. The anti-terrorism legislation which consists of prevention, treatment and punishment is defined as subsidiary mode, it dramatically enlarges the administrative power and emphasizes the procedures. The statute will play a more important role in common law system to fight against terrorism in the future. However, problems concerning human rights,nations and religions must be weighted.
