博弈论视角下的自首行为分析

用博弈论的观点分析自首行为，是对刑法问题研究的一次创新和突破，是在刑法之外研究刑法问题的重要路径之一。自首行为与博弈论分析对象的内在契合性决定了自首行为博弈分析的可行性。为使用博弈论观点分析自首行为的可操作性更强，博弈模型的分析找到了多种策略组合中的纳什均衡点，为自首制度的施行提供了理论上的支持。不同博弈类型下自首的认定分析，为解决司法实践中的自首认定问题提供了路径。     

What Executioners Can—and Cannot—Teach Us About the Death Penalty

Those who work with the condemned often come to reject the death penalty not only in individual cases, and not only on the ground that it is poorly implemented. They tend to conclude that the punishment is wrong. I argue that the perspective of the executioner helps illuminate the debate about whether to abolish capital punishment, and that indeed the perspective of those who work with the condemned raises the troubling possibility that support for the death penalty can survive only at a great remove. Jeffrie Murphy has also argued that the executioner’s perspective can be useful, but I contend that Murphy asks the wrong question. His essay considers whether an executioner may, under some circumstances, take pride in his work. The better question is whether anyone ought to be asked to do such work. On this latter question, the perspective of the executioner sheds important light. Like Murphy, I draw on works by and about Albert Pierrepoint, the “last hangman” of Britain. I also draw on the perspectives of numerous executioners, wardens, chaplains, and other death row personnel. I argue that their perspectives offer a powerful argument against the main rationale for the death penalty: retribution. If retribution is keyed to the offender’s character as well as his wrongful act, then post-conviction character ought to matter. The executioners’ accounts share a common theme: that death row inmates change over time and hold the potential for redemption.     

Justifications for Non-Consensual Medical Intervention: From Infectious Disease Control to Criminal Rehabilitation

A central tenet of medical ethics holds that it is permissible to perform a medical intervention on a competent individual only if that individual has given informed consent to the intervention. Yet it occasionally seems morally permissible to carry out non-consensual medical interventions on competent individuals for the purpose of infectious disease control (IDC). We describe two different moral frameworks that have been invoked in support of non-consensual IDC interventions and identify five desiderata that might be used to guide assessments of the moral permissibility of such interventions on either kind of fundamental justification. We then consider what these desiderata imply for the justifiability of carrying out non-consensual medical interventions that are designed to facilitate rehabilitation amongst serious criminal offenders. We argue that these desiderata suggest that a plausible case can be made in favor of such interventions.     

对增设未成年犯社区服务刑的探讨

社区服务刑融教育刑思想与赔偿理论于一体,符合刑罚轻缓化和行刑社会化的趋势。对未成年犯适用社区服务刑,既能体现刑罚的惩罚功能,又能达到刑罚教育预防的目的。     

论刑事公诉案件中被害人的上诉权

当前的刑诉法典规定,公诉案件的被害人不享有上诉权,其不服地方各级人民法院第一审的判决,只能请求人民检察院抗诉。围绕着是否应赋予被害人以上诉权,目前理论界存在两种对立的观点：肯定说（赞成说）和否定说（反对说）。基于刑事诉讼惩罚犯罪与保障人权的目的,比较这两种观点及主要理由并综合考虑各种因素,在刑事诉讼法再修改时应赋予被害人有限的上诉权。     

社区服务刑刍议

在我国,社区服务刑作为一种全新的刑罚方式,可以避免传统监禁刑和罚金刑的一些弊端,可以达到犯罪人和社区的双赢效果,体现了轻缓化、非刑罚化的刑罚改革趋势,是完善我国刑罚结构的需要,是我国刑事司法和社区矫正工作的现实要求,也是我国社会发展的必然要求。在我国《刑法》中引入社区服务刑这一刑罚方式具有现实意义,但如何进行立法,有哪些现实困难以及如何解决,增设社区服务刑会有怎样的影响等,都有必要进行探讨。     

《丹麦刑事执行法》的主要内容及其对我国立法的启示

《丹麦刑事执行法》内容全面而系统,操作性强,蕴涵人权保护、行刑社会化等法制理念,自2000年颁布施行以来,对该国刑事执行工作的良性运作发挥了重大作用。虽然我国与丹麦在政治制度、历史文化传统等方面存在差异,但他山之石,可以攻玉,对《丹麦刑事执行法》的统一立法体例、先进的执行理念以及对罪犯权利的保障等制度规则的研究与探索,对我国刑事执行立法具有重要意义。     

“宽严相济”刑事政策的正当性考察

"宽严相济"是我国司法机关依据刑事法规范和原则制定出来的指导具体刑事司法活动的一项基本政策。它适用并诠释着相关刑事法规范所欲实现的价值选择与目标追求;该政策吸纳并体现了现代刑法的谦抑精神,符合轻刑主义刑罚理念的发展方向。从整体上说,"宽严相济"刑事政策既具有理论上的正当性,又具有制定法上的合法性。     

论宽严相济刑事政策与自由刑的完善

合理的刑罚结构是实现宽严相济刑事政策的基础,文章主要从以下四个方面探讨了在宽严相济刑事政策要求下,如何完善我国刑罚体系中的自由刑：一、无期徒刑;二、有期徒刑;三、管制;四、增加社区矫正刑。文章并针对刑罚制度的弊端,提出了修改的建议和措施,以更好地体现宽严相济刑事政策的要求,实现刑罚现代化。     

试论我国商标犯罪中的商标范围

对商标犯罪对象的甄选 ,反映了立法者的认识能力、立法时的犯罪态势以及立法者对社会利益的综合衡量。目前我国刑法中商标犯罪的犯罪对象均为注册商标 ,对未注册商标不予保护。在注册服务商标的保护方面 ,我国刑法仍然存在漏洞。借鉴WTO规则以及其他国家和地区的相关规定 ,结合我国商标犯罪的现状及发展趋势 ,进一步扩大商标犯罪之“商标”范围。但同时应注意刑事司法应当恪守罪刑法定原则 ,不能超越刑事立法任意扩大犯罪圈。
