论我国罪犯劳动报酬与执法行为的规范化

罪犯劳动报酬维护了罪犯的合法权利,肯定了罪犯的劳动价值,但目前监狱法还未制定罪犯劳动报酬实施细则。国外立法大都规定了罪犯劳动报酬实施制度,我国各省监狱的做法却不一样,科学性、规范性也不够。因此,必须从罪犯劳动报酬的含义及发展历程出发,通过与社会劳动者的比较,并结合我国各省市罪犯劳动报酬实践的具体情况,来具体规范我国罪犯劳动报酬之执法。

行刑体制改革初探

现行行刑体制存在立法滞后、权力分散、领导体制僵化等诸多弊端,已在一定程度上阻碍了我国行刑工作的现代化进程.必须对传统的片面、孤立、封闭的行刑观念进行反思和检讨,在此基础上,建构一个法治、人道、公正和高效的现代化行刑体制.制订统一行刑法典,彻底实现监企分离,合理调整监狱布局,推进开放式处遇,应是我国行刑体制改革的主要方向.     

收回死刑复核权面临的难题及其破解

It is of great significance for the Supreme Court of China (SCC) to take back the power of having judicial review for death sentences. For that purpose, first, we have to amend the procedures for judicial review for death sentences, including precisely defining the responsibility of the SCC to review death sentences, determining appropriate modes of review, prescribing the time limit of review, allowing the participation of defense lawyers and prosecutors, etc. Second, we must also amend the appellate procedures for capital cases, including holding hearings, comprehensive trial of key cases, and adjusting the time limit for the second instance. Third, we must improve relative systems that can directly affect the trial quality of capital cases, including the improvement of evidentiary rules, the reform of judicial committees, and the forbiddance to change an original sentence into a death sentence. Long Zongzhi, professor, chairs the academic commission at Southwestern University of Politics and Law. Meanwhile, he takes the vice chair of the supervising committee of legal education in the Ministry of Education of China. He advanced the theory of dual structure of criminal litigation in early 1990s and put forward the theory of relative reasonableness in late 1990s, which exerted great influence in academic law. Moreover, he has published a great number of works on criminal litigation, judicial system, and evidence law.     

论监狱文化的育人功能及其培育

监狱文化是监狱干警、职工及其服刑罪犯共同认同遵循并具有监狱特色的价值观念、行为方式、监狱精神、道德规范、发展目标和思想意识等，具有导向性、继承性、稳定性和特色性的特征。良好的监狱文化对罪犯改造工作具有熏陶、控制、规范、定向引导、凝聚激励等功能。因此，监狱应精心设计、谋划，通过长期的点滴积累，以形成富有监狱特色的监狱文化体系。     

和谐社会下的监狱刑罚执行制度研究——多元社会主体参与行刑

在构建和谐社会的大语境下，我国监狱行刑主体单一的现状必须进行改革，应导入多元社会主体参与行刑．即让罪犯、非政府组织（NG0）、包括受害人在内的公民和监狱在监狱行刑活动中拥有相应的话语权。这是监狱本身具有促进社会和谐稳定的政治责任、公民社会发育渐趋成熟等诸多方面的必然要求。在多元社会主体参与行刑的路径选择和模式构建上：一是要解决法律的挈肘，修改或补充法律条款：二是要立足我国监狱行刑实践．把多元社会主体参与行刑分为六个层次和三个发展阶段。循序渐进地推进行刑改革，以更好地实现人们对“新程序正义”的诉求和期待。     

Recent Trends in Sentencing Policies in the Netherlands

This article considers sentencing in the Netherlands and in particular the changes that have been introduced since the 1980s, both in the adult and in the juvenile justice system. Several questions will be treated in the article. Sentencing in the Netherlands in the last two decades is analysed and some explanations for the changing trends are presented. Results indicate that the Netherlands is following a general pattern, prevalent in Europe and the US, of more punitive and repressive punishment. Also, the extent to which new sentencing options, such as community sanctions have made a difference to the upward trend in imprisonment, will be analysed. In an effort to reduce the costs of the system new policies are being developed, introducing both 'front door' and 'back door' varieties in sentencing. These will lead to some important and radical changes in the criminal justice system.     

狱内行凶伤害案件的特点及防范

狱内行凶伤害案件是监管安全的重大隐患。故此，必须建立信息化的狱情监测平台，掌控狱情变化；加大对罪犯特别是暴力型罪犯的监控力度，实施超前防范；主动进攻，强化对重点罪犯的监管与改造，减少行凶伤害危机；开展心理测试，强化不良心理矫治，修正罪犯认知偏差；提高监狱警察危机管理水平，建立长效预防机制，以消除事故隐患，确保监狱秩序的稳定。     

论监狱的功能——以监狱的社会属性为研究视角

监狱是社会制度发展的附属物，也是刑罚发展的衍生物。监狱作为国家刑罚的执行机关，同时又是社会安全的保障机器。监狱是属于社会属性的范畴，监狱与社会在逻辑上是部分与整体的关系，监狱的这种根植于社会的属性，决定了监狱与社会有不可分割的关系。对社会来说，监狱的存在即是发挥着它在社会中应有的作用。监狱是维护社会秩序的工具，监狱作为刑罚执行的最主要主体，国家通过刑罚来保障社会公共安全和社会秩序的稳定，彰显着其独特的隔离关押、犯罪控制和罪犯再社会化的社会功能。
