Unemployment, Economic Theory, and Property Crime: A Note on Measurement

Drawing on rational choice theory, this study considers how best to measureunemployment within the context of the unemployment–property crimerelationship. Specifically, we use ARIMA techniques to examine the relativeefficacy of using the conventional Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS)unemployment rate and two alternative measures of the demand for labor aspredictors of monthly counts of U.S. property offenses for the years 1982through 1996. The bivariate time series analyses indicate that while theBLS unemployment rate exhibits null effects, the number of individualsunemployed for 15 weeks or more and the capacity utilization ratesignificantly affect the level of property crime. The implications ofthese results are discussed.

在侦查贩卖毒品、伪造货币等无明确被害人的案件中,诱惑侦查作为一种特殊的侦查形式,得到越来越多的使用,但法律却对此没有明文规定。作者试图比照犯罪构成的几个方面,从诱惑侦查的主体、施用对象、表现特征、诱惑侦查与诱人犯罪的区别等角度,诠释诱惑侦查。     

对我国现行侦查模式的反思与重构

侦查程序是整个刑事诉讼程序中最重要的阶段。侦查权行使不当或者滥用容易侵犯公民权利。如何构建一种能制约侦查权力,避免侦查权行使的无序和恣意妄为,以确保公民个人权利的侦查模式,就成为现代侦查制度的主要课题。     

The European Sourcebook of Crime and Criminal Justice Statistics: A New Tool in Assessing Crime and Policy Issues in Comparative and Empirical Perspective

Theories which suggest a relationship between crime or criminal justice variables on the one hand, and variables related to criminal justice policies on the other hand, cannot be tested without reference to historic or comparative data. Since international comparisons offer the most powerful test of such theories, policy-related research in Europe has suffered, so far, from a lack of valid comparative data. Whether crime data from different countries are comparable, has always been subject to controversies. In the case of the European Sourcebook of Crime and Criminal Justice, a network of specialists was established under the auspices of the Council of Europe in order to assess the validity of the data. Although some problems in cross-country level comparisons could not be settled, the European Sourcebook offers comparative data on 36 Member States of the Council of Europe on a variety of subjects (offences and offenders known to the police; prosecution, convictions, sentences, and corrections; survey data; and indications on manpower and budgets of police forces, prosecutors, and corrections).

非法利用信息网络罪的适用疑难与教义学表述

生效案件已经暴露了非法利用信息网络罪的罪质不明、追诉标准阙如、司法竞合处置有失妥当、积极适用的司法导向淡薄等问题。基于“利用信息网络”的行为特质,应明确《刑法》第287条之一的网络独立预备犯之立法旨趣,是一般性罪名,起基础性的规制功能,取代《刑法》第287条发挥司法兜底之用。不宜限制解释“其他、等‘违法犯罪’（信息、活动）”,扩张解释更符合第287条之一法定的相对有限的一般性规制功能。“同时构成其他犯罪的,依照处罚较重的规定定罪处罚”是限制刑罚处罚的提示性规定,本罪在实践中与关联犯罪的实质竞合概率应极低。应确认信息网络安全管理秩序的具体法益内容,固化其释法机能。应明确“情节严重”的具体追诉情形,注重通过案例指导制度提供持续性的司法供给。
