The Russian Federation Needs a New Criminal Code

The 1996 Criminal Code of the Russian Federation [CC RF] is very incomplete, as is particularly evident in many of its statutes. For instance, Article 2, Part 1, in defining the purpose of the code, cites the social values safeguarded by criminal law in a sequence corresponding to their relative importance in the Constitution of the Russian Federation: human rights and freedoms, property, public order, public safety, the environment, and the constitutional order of the Russian Federation.     

The New Laws on the Judicial System,the Criminal Code,and the Code of Criminal Procedure of the Russian Federation

New laws — the Law on the Judicial System of the RSFSR, the Criminal Code, and the Code of Criminal Procedure of the RSFSR — were passed on October 27, 1960, at the Third Session of the RSFSR Supreme Soviet (Fifth Convocation). These laws are in accord with the Principles of Criminal Legislation of the USSR and the Union Republics, the Principles of Legislation on the Judicial System of the USSR, the Union and Autonomous Republics, and the Principles of Criminal Procedure of the USSR and the Union Republics. The enactment of these laws by the Russian Federation constitutes an important landmark in the development of Soviet legislation.     

The Code Of Civil Procedure of the Russian Federation

The new Code of Civil Procedure of the RSFSR, adopted on June 11, 1964 by the Third Session of the Sixth RSFSR Supreme Soviet, will go into effect as of October 1, 1964.     

俄罗斯联邦刑事诉讼法的创新发展

俄罗斯于 1 960年通过的刑事诉讼法典在苏联解体后虽经频繁修订 ,最终被新法典所取代。联邦宪法所确定的公民权利和自由以及刑事诉讼的民主原则在新法典中获得创新与发展 ,其辩论式诉讼模式、非法证据排除规则和被告人认罪的特别审理程序等项内容的确立 ,反映出俄罗斯在刑事诉讼价值观念上的重大转变。新法典中体现的多元诉讼价值理念 ,对各诉讼主体权利义务范围作出的明确规定 ,所选择的刑事证据立法模式和确立的证据规则 ,为充分保障人权所建立的广泛司法审查制度 ,借鉴美国辩诉交易而设置的速决程序等 ,对我国刑事诉讼法的再修正与完善都具有积极的借鉴意义。     

俄罗斯民事诉讼法典的修改

2003年2月1日俄罗斯开始施行新的民事诉讼法典即<俄罗斯联邦民事诉讼法典>.这部新法典新在何处,对原来的<苏俄民事诉讼法典>做了哪些修改,对我国立法有何可资借鉴之处,本文就这些问题进行探讨.

俄罗斯民法典中继承法律规范的新变化

俄罗斯自1 985年进行经济体制改革后,为反映改革后财产关系的重大变化并尽早结束改革时期各单行法相互抵触的局面,从1 992年开始起草第三部民法典,〔1〕历时近1 0年,于2 0 0 1年底颁布了第三部分。俄罗斯这部新民法典反映了俄罗斯市场经济体制变革的结果,其中许多规范都是对改革后形成的新的关系的调整。本文将研究的注意力集中在该法典第三部分第五编“继承权”〔2〕上,重点介绍和分析《俄罗斯新民法典》中继承法律规范的某些新的变化,以供中国的立法者和研究者借鉴参考。《俄罗斯新民法典》第五编“继承权”分为五章,共76条。这五章的标题…

The illegal trade of raptors in the Russian Federation

Wildlife trafficking, along with other green crimes, receives little attention from the criminological community. This study provides further knowledge of this black market, and exposes the structural harms that are associated with it, by examining the illegal trade in falcons in Russian Far East. The structural harms proposed here are that wildlife trafficking, and the illegal raptor trade in particular endangers the environment, is cruel to animals, and threatens national and human security because of its connection to other dangerous illicit activities. Through semi‐structured interviews, trade statistics, and online news sources, a framework is developed as to who is involved, how it is occurring, and where it is taking place as well as possible ways in which to curb this activity.     

刑法中“其他”及“等”略考

刑法条文是以语言为载体来表达一定立法意图的.因而,刑法用语对于理解刑法条文之规定具有重要意义.但是,刑法中大量的"其他"与"等"这些不确定内容词语的使用造成了刑法的确定性下降,对罪刑法定原则构成了威胁.本文以详细的统计数字为基础,考察了刑法中"其他"与"等"的使用情况、存在的问题;并对减少"其他"与"等"的使用、"其他"与"等"的解释权作了探讨.     

Characteristic of mortality in the Russian Federation

The objective of the present work was to estimate the overall mortality in the Russian Federation and to elucidate the structure and characteristics of violent and non-violent mortality in this country. The study is largely based on the materials of reports on the activities of local bureaus of forensic medical expertise for the period from 2003 to 2008; in addition, the data from the official demographic and statistical yearbooks issued by the Russian State Statistical Committee (Goskomstat) in 2008-2009 were used. It is shown that cardiovascular pathology appears to be currently the leading cause of general mortality in the Russian Federation. A substantial fraction in the structure of general mortality is constituted by mechanical injuries most of which are inflicted in car accidents. More than half of the fatal cases caused by external factors and around one third of the deaths from cardiovascular diseases are associated with alcohol intoxication. Statistical treatment of the results of analysis conducted in the present study provided materials for the development of recommendations designed to improve the demographic situation in the Russian Federation.
