毒品致幻型犯罪可罚性探析

我国法律并未直接规定因食用毒品产生幻觉后犯罪的可罚性问题,司法实务界也存在很多的争议。基于对毒品致幻型犯罪行为人刑事责任能力的认定及"罪刑法定"原则适用可能性分析,最终认定毒品致幻型犯罪适用刑法,从而确定毒品致幻型犯罪的可罚性,为打击毒品犯罪,遏制毒品犯罪高发势头做出一定探索。     

单位犯罪与自然人犯罪的界分

由于单位犯罪的复杂性,立法放弃了对单位犯罪的定义权,从而将认定单位犯罪的任务留给了理论和实务界。犯罪是行为,行为表现意志。反过来说,意志支配行为,意志具有根本的判定作用。所以,单位意志是判定单位犯罪的最终指标,所谓以单位名义、违法所得归单位所有、为了单位利益、单位的业务范围、由单位决策机关或者负责人决定,都是单位意志的外在表现形式,是判断单位意志的辅助标志和参考因素,与单位意志之间是现象与本质、局部与整体的关系。而判定单位意志的标准,在于单位成员的行为是否符合单位长期的业务政策、规定、操作习惯,或者具有为单位谋利的动机并经过单位决策机关或者负责人决定。     

论《老子》中的“自然无为”

＂自然无为＂是老子思想中的重要观念。＂自然＂是指事物所拥有的一种状态,＂无为＂则是指对待事物时的一种心态。本文从＂自然＂和＂无为＂两方面入手,论述老子的这一思想,及其在生活中的指导意义。     

也论“胎儿损害赔偿请求权”——基于民法请求权理论的思考

近年来,学界出现了＂胎儿损害赔偿请求权＂的提法,其实质是指自然人对于出生前所遭受的损害有权要求赔偿,权利主体应是自然人而非胎儿,行使赔偿请求权的前提是自然人的先期人身法益遭受了侵害。胎儿不具有民事主体资格,不能享有民事实体权利,在遭受侵害时也就不存在损害赔偿请求权。因此,这一提法不妥,应予纠正。     

Public and family support and concerns for providing DNA to law enforcement in long-term missing person cases

The identification of long-term missing persons and unidentified human remains is a global challenge. Many people stay on missing persons registers, with unidentified human remains stored for extended periods in mortuaries around the world. Research exploring public and/or family support for providing DNA in long-term missing persons cases is scarce. The aims of this study were to examine whether trust in police predicted the level of support for providing DNA and explore public/family support and concerns for providing DNA in such cases. Trust in police was measured through two widely used empirical attitude scales; “The Measures of Police Legitimacy and Procedural Justice”. Support and concerns for giving DNA were measured through four hypothetical missing persons case scenarios. The results showed more positive attitudes towards police legitimacy and procedural justice significantly predicted support, with the percentage level of positive support across the four case types as follows: cases involving a long-term missing child (89%), elderly adult with dementia (83%), young adult with a history of runaway (76%), with the lowest level of support for an adult with an estranged family (73%). Participants also reported more concerns about providing DNA when the missing person circumstances involved family estrangement. Understanding levels of public/family support and concerns around providing DNA to police in missing persons cases is vital to ensure that DNA collection practices reflect what the public/family support and, wherever possible, alleviate public concerns.
