刑法人格主义的检讨与革新

刑法人格主义的思想发源于刑法主观主义阵营,经过刑法客观主义阵营的批判与吸收,在当代演化成人格刑法学等理论成果,并成为折衷主义的重要产物。发展中的刑法人格主义应当遵循法治的基本精神,谨慎地对待人身危险性问题,决不能抛弃行为这一基本概念而陷入主观主义的危险境地。西方国家将人格因素渗透到刑事立法的事实,暗合了我国刑法学理论的发展趋势,有必要科学地对待人格因素在定罪机制中发挥的作用,并在量刑和行刑过程中及时推广人格调查制度和人格矫正制度。     

The birth and growth of modern jurisprudence in China

This paper relates the birth and growth of modern jurisprudence in China, summarizes several representative works on modern jurisprudence, such as The Development History of China’s Jurisprudence, and describes the features that characterize the process of its birth and growth, so as to systematically explore the formation and development of China’s modern jurisprudence from the revision of law in late Qing Dynasty to the founding of the People’s Republic of China in 1949, and to prove that modern jurisprudence is the starting point and cornerstone for contemporary jurisprudence and the source of its development and prosperity in China. __________ Translated from China Law, No. 3, 2005     

法理学研究什么--从当前中国实践看法理学的使命

当前中国法理学有三种研究倾向,一种是启蒙(价值)倾向的法理学,一种是注释倾向的法理学,第三种是实证(规律)倾向的法理学.其中,第三种倾向是与法理学作为一门研究法律现实运作和演变规律的科学的性质相吻合的.否定法理学的科学性质,反而容易使它走上虚无主义的歧途.中国法理学当前要着重研究四个方面的规律研究世界范围内的法律演进的普遍规律,研究普遍规律支配下的中国法律演进的特殊规律,研究影响和制约法律运行的现实规律,研究依然影响现实法律的历史规律.就价值问题而言,法理学对中国法律未来的关注应该从对目标的价值论证转向对目标与路径的实证研究,研究多数人的目标选择及影响目标选择的复杂因素,而不是要代替人们选择法治目标及道路.     

FEMINIST JURISPRUDENCE: KEEPING THE SUBJECT ALIVE

One of the main purposes of feminist jurisprudence is to create or find better ways of being and living for women through the analysis, critique, and use of law. Rich work has emerged, and continues to emerge, from feminist theorists exploring conceptions of the self, personhood, identity and subjectivity that could be used to form a basic unit in law and politics. In this article, it is argued that a strong sense of human subjectivity needs to be retained to enable the human potentiality of women and men to flourish. This can be done in a way which is not essentialist, yet does not dissolve the subject out of existence, issues pertinent to feminist jurisprudence in recent years.     

The Outer Limits of Copyright Law – Where Law Meets Philosophy and Culture

This article engages in a cultural critique of copyright law. The point is to explain how and why this body of law is culturally exclusive, notwithstanding the claims made by judges and others that the law is culturally open and inclusive. This involves a discussion of the relationship between philosophy and law, and of how this nexus has been misrepresented by the courts and in recent writings on the subject. Analysis centres on a discussion of Australian case law involving indigenous claims of communal ownership of copyright and the treatment of technology when it comes to attributing authorship.

凯尔森清除法学中意识形态因素探微

凯尔森是西方久负盛名的法学家,然国内对其的探讨还仅仅限定在教材中泛泛介绍,更别说对其在法学中清除意识形态影响的研究。通过探讨凯尔森在法学的内外两方清除意识形态的影响,以求以此显现其纯粹法学的确切含义。     

论建构我国刑事和解制度的法理基础——兼论刑事和解制度的基本框定

我国刑事和解制度阙失的根本成因在于对其法理基础的不自信，本质是被害人在刑事诉讼过程中的缺位、边缘化和失语。刑事和解制度的建立和完善是我国刑事司法制度实现由国家主义向民本主义转型的必然要求，是重估和校正传统的刑罚功能判定的必然结论，是凸显刑罚促进社会和谐价值的必然举措。适用于特定刑事案件的刑事和解制度的建构及其运作，应当遵循促进当事人和解、尊重当事人意思自治、坚持司法机关主导的基本原则，并对达成刑事和解协议的加害人实行轻缓化的刑罚处遇。     

Taking Stock of Drug Courts: Do They Work?

ABSTRACT

Although researchers, policymakers, and practitioners alike have long known about the established link between substance abuse and criminal behavior, criminal justice agencies in the United States are still tasked with managing an influx of individuals who display symptoms of abuse and dependence. By the late 1980s, the drug court model emerged as an innovative response to this problem, and this reform has since proliferated to such an extent that it is the most common type of problem-solving court in America. Still, there remains much variation in how drug courts are implemented across jurisdictions, which can have strong implications for the outcomes among the courts’ participants. In this review, we summarize the key research on drug court implementation, followed by an assessment of whether they can be said to “work” in terms of reducing criminal behavior and relapse among adults. We conclude that the model remains an evidence-based practice and suggest some directions for future work, including increased emphasis on theory and causal dynamics and key measurement issues.
