Similarities and Differences in Victimization Risk Factors for Nonoffending and Offending Substance Users

In this cross-sectional study of substance users in Norway, the authors describe the patterns of victimization and investigate the factors associated with victimization, for nonoffenders and offenders separately. Recent victimization was reported by 59%, and the victimization rate was higher among offenders compared with nonoffenders (69% and 43%, p < .001). Women, regardless of offender status, experienced more victimization. Unstable housing was associated with victimization among nonoffenders, whereas markers for more severe substance use and indicators for poor mental health were associated with victimization in both groups. Addressing these factors may be important in reducing victimization and its negative outcomes among substance users.     

'More Intimate Than Violence': Sexual Violation in Sarah Dunant's Transgressions

Horeck looks at what happens when a feminist author attempts to rewrite one of culture's most powerful narratives: the story of female victimization and male sexual violence. Exploring the controversy surrounding Sarah Dunant's 1997 thriller Transgressions , a novel accused of being 'anti-feminist' for its alleged depiction of female sexual arousal in a rape scene, she asks after feminism's fictional investment in images of rape. What kind of cultural work are images of sexual violence being made to perform for feminist crime writers? Her contention is that Dunant's novel exemplifies the purchase that rape holds for feminism as a scenario for working through questions of female agency and male-female sexual relations. Through her represenation of the female translator's attempt to rewrite a dominant cultural narrative of male brutality and female victimization, Dunant is thematizing the difficult work of the feminist crime writer. But while the novel's fictional representation of sex and violence can be read as an attempt to unsettle governing gender codes, Horeck argues that it also inadvertently shows up the limitations of the female crime writer's attempt to fight 'fantasy with fantasy'.     

CCTV监控系统、犯罪预防与虚拟侦查

侦查工作的信息化是虚拟侦查得以展开的必要条件,在信息的采集和使用领域,CCTV监控系统对于虚拟侦查具有不可低估的重要作用。通过制定规范的CCTV监控程序,建立有效的内部和外部监督制约机制,能够确保CCTV监控系统得到合法、有效地运用,并且避免公民的隐私权遭到不应有的侵犯。     

相对贫困是外来人口犯罪的一个重要因素

贫困是导致犯罪的重要原因。相对贫困导致外来人口犯罪的客观原因包括经济因素、控制机制因素、地缘因素、就业因素和社会消极因素;主现原因包括心理承受力和心态、受教育程度。外来人口犯罪的特点表现为作案手段简单,随意性和流动性大,以宗亲或同乡关系为纽带结伙作案。作案类型主要是盗窃、抢劫、诈骗和伤害。抑制外来人口犯罪应发展经济,有效地控制贫富差距,防止两级分化;坚持精神文明与物质文明一起抓,保持社会全面、协调地发展;教育农民;完善城市治安防范控制机制。     

环境刑法的伦理基础

在环境伦理学中,对于人与自然的关系主要存在人类中心主义、动物解放/权利论、生物平等主义和生态中心主义四种学说。其中,现代人类中心主义是一种最低性的道德标准,可以作为环境刑法的伦理基础。从现代人类中心主义的角度审视环境犯罪,可以发现:环境犯罪是对当代人和未来世代人利益的侵犯,其社会危害性并不仅仅体现为经济价值,环境犯罪正在向一种自然犯罪演化。     

法定犯中行政前置性要件的法理基础与制度构造

行政前置性要件作为刑法分则个罪中的限制性要件,强调行政处理优先性,包含着以刑罚处罚确保行政执法效果的制度期待,是刑法谦抑性的新表达。在法定犯日趋增多的时代背景下,刑法修正中的犯罪化不可避免,单一强调犯罪化或非犯罪化均存在较大副作用,在个罪中设置行政前置性要件,重视法益恢复在阻却犯罪成立中的积极价值,有利于追寻犯罪化与非犯罪化的最佳平衡点。行政前置性要件的法理基础在于部分犯罪存在法益侵害待定状态。立法者在增设法定犯时,若认为该犯罪存在法益侵害待定状态,并且不直接涉及人身法益,当优先考虑设置行政前置性要件。     

中德(日)犯罪成立体系比较分析

我国刑法界目前正在进行"犯罪构成体系重构或者完善"的讨论。"重构说"强调应以德国及日本的犯罪成立体系为参照,对源自前苏联的我国通说性犯罪构成体系进行全面改造,而"完善说"对通说体系的态度则以调适修补为基调。因而,站在解说中国问题的立场对德日体系之利弊得失作出评析,便尽显必要。     

受贿罪立法问题研究

我国刑法关于受贿罪的立法,在立法思想上存在着矛盾,对受贿罪的犯罪对象规定的范围过窄,对受贿罪与行贿罪的关系处理不当,过分强调受贿数额对受贿罪法定刑的影响。这些问题在一定程度上影响了刑法在惩治贿赂犯罪方面功能作用的发挥,有必要从立法层面上研究解决。解决这些问题,既是有效地打击贿赂犯罪的需要,也是我国刑法与《联合国反腐败公约》相衔接的要求。     

论医药购销领域商业贿赂犯罪的刑法规制

近年来，医药购销领域商业贿赂犯罪形势愈发严峻，给整个社会带来了极大危害，急需刑法的有效惩治。但由于我国现行刑法中有关商业贿赂犯罪的法律规定存在着一定的缺失，一定程度上影响了医药购销领域商业贿赂犯罪的刑法规制效果。为此，我们有必要对商业贿赂犯罪的刑事立法缺陷进行相应的完善，以期增强运用刑法打击医药购销领域商业贿赂犯罪的威慑力。
