知识产权行政执法与刑事司法衔接机制研究

完善我国知识产权行政执法与刑事司法衔接机制,必须整合执法衔接的法律依据,完善法律、司法解释的相关规定及检察机关的监督机制,明确案件的移送标准。此外,还必须统一证据转化标准及案件移送的时间节点和所需要的具体材料、手续。     

论我国犯罪心理测试法律规范的构建

近年来,犯罪心理测试技术越来越多地应用于我国的案件侦查和司法调查,但其法律地位不明确。实践中缺乏统一、标准化的操作规范,对犯罪心理测试结论的审查、采用规则,阻碍了犯罪心理测试技术的良好运用。应以犯罪心理测试的技术要求为基点,以其他证据的法律要求规范为参考,构建犯罪心理测试运用的程序规范和测试结论运用规则。其程序规范为：对犯罪心理测试的有限使用;测试的适用主体限制;权利告知制度;测试的不受干扰原则。     

“严打”刑事政策的合理性解读

＂严打＂是在国家的总体发展政策和基本刑事政策指导下的一项具体的刑事政策,其本身具有一定的稳定性与灵活性,而并非一种固定的对严重刑事犯罪的打击模式。严厉打击严重刑事犯罪作为一项具体的刑事政策具有极大的合理性,是毋庸置疑的一项政策选择。     

我国刑事强制措施制度的现状及完善

刑事强制措施制度的本质体现了实现刑罚与保障人权的对立统一关系,在实现国家刑罚的同时要最大限度的实现人权保障。我国现行刑事诉讼立法对刑事强制措施的采用规定了较为严格的条件和程序,但该制度仍存缺陷及不足,有必要在立法上进一步完善。     

中国古代刑法中的“罪刑法定”论

在中国古代刑法中,很早就有了"罪刑法定"的思想.这一思想从春秋时期被提出,经战国、秦汉的发展,遭"春秋决狱"的磨难,到晋代的再次被提出和隋唐的进一步发展及以后各代的相继沿用,前后经历了漫长的历程.但是,由于中国封建专制皇权的存在,"罪刑法定"思想始终没能上升为古代刑法的基本原则.尽管如此,"罪刑法定"思想在同罪刑擅断相斗争,维护封建统治的过程中,一直发挥着重要的作用.     

完善我国单位犯罪刑事诉讼程序之构想——以中、法法律比较为视角

我国刑法对单位犯罪作出了明确的规定,但刑事诉讼法缺乏相应的诉讼程序规定.借鉴法国刑事诉讼法关于单位犯罪诉讼程序的规定,我国应在《刑事诉讼法》中设专章对单位犯罪诉讼程序加以规定,明确对单位犯罪的职能管辖与审判管辖.     

Rape Shield Laws and Sexual Behavior Evidence: Effects of Consent Level and Women’s Sexual History on Rape Allegations

Rape shield laws, which limit the introduction of sexual history evidence in rape trials, challenge the view that women with extensive sexual histories more frequently fabricate charges of rape than other women. The present study examined the relationship between women's actual sexual history and their reporting rape in hypothetical scenarios. Female participants (college students and a community sample, which included women working as prostitutes and topless dancers, and women living in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation center) imagined themselves in dating scenarios that described either a legally definable act of rape or consensual sexual intercourse. Additionally, within the rape scenarios, level of consensual intimate contact (i.e., foreplay) preceding rape was examined to determine its influence on rape reporting. Women were less likely to say that they would take legal action in response to the rape scenarios if they had extensive sexual histories, or if they had consented to an extensive amount of intimate contact before the rape. In response to the consensual sexual intercourse scenarios, women with more extensive sexual histories were not more likely to say that they would report rape, even when the scenario provided them with a motive for seeking revenge against their dating partner.     

Psychopathy and Nonverbal Indicators of Deception in Offenders

The current study examined psychopathy and nonverbal indicators of deception in an incarcerated sample. Nonverbal behaviors were coded from videotapes of 45 male offenders telling true and fabricated stories about crimes. Interpersonal features of psychopathy were associated with inflated views of lying ability, verbosity, and increases in blinking, illustrator use, and speech hesitations. While lying, the more psychopathic offenders spoke faster and demonstrated increases in blinking and head movements. Indicators of deception in offenders were somewhat different from those typically observed in non-offender populations. These findings indicate that personality factors may have an impact on nonverbal indicators of deception in criminal justice settings where the detection of deception is of utmost concern.     

＂刑法危机＂的症结何在——就犯罪圈、刑罚量问题的些许感想

本文从新近的一种人格刑法的有力主张入手,首先给出了对于当下刑事法网是"厉而不严"而非"又严又厉"的基本判断,在此基础上,认为破除刑法危机、实现刑法机制的良性运转应该以"严而不厉"为基本保障,从而主张在刑罚轻缓化的同时,还必要强调刑法调控范围的适度扩张即犯罪化,并且,为这样的一种主张与时下的"宽严相济的刑事政策"在刑事立法意义上找到了某种契合。     

The Intergenerational Cycle of Criminality—Association with Psychopathy*

Abstract: Preventive interventions early in life are likely to lower the risk of intergenerational transmission of criminal behavior. We investigated if psychopathy among homicidal offenders is associated with criminal offending among the offenders’ offspring. The basic sample consisted of consecutive Finnish homicide offenders (during 1995–2004) who had been subjected to a forensic psychiatric examination and rated for a file‐based PCL‐R, and their offspring. Criminal behavior among both genders of the offspring was more common than in the general population. In general, the offspring’s crimes against others (e.g., threat, intimidation, deprivation of freedom, breach of domicile) were associated with their parent’s psychopathy. A grandfather’s major mental disorder was associated with a high rate of crime committed by the offspring. Especially, the sons of male psychopathic homicidal offenders had the highest rate of committing crimes, which was often expressed as vandalism. However, both genders of offspring seem to require special preventive programs to ameliorate these problems.
