刑事司法一体化视野下之侦查功能研究

就侦查基础理论而言,侦查功能是不可或缺的一个组成部分。刑事司法一体化的理论基础是系统论。由于犯罪行为与社会越轨行为之间存在着互动的关系,刑事制裁法律体系以及行政制裁法律体系的具体适用也要视具体情况而定,因此,侦查活动的结果直接决定了制裁系统的选择及刑事司法系统后续环节的启动与否,也决定了整个刑事司法系统的运作效果。     

现行拆迁补偿安置纠纷司法救济定位评析

在征用土地拆迁补偿安置中,当事人达不成拆迁补偿安置协议时如何寻求民事司法救济,司法救济如何定位以平衡各方利益?对此,现行法律、法规均未作出明确规定,而最高人民法院在新近的一项司法解释中,否决了当事人寻求民事司法救济的努力,这一举动忽视了诉权多元保障的重要性,不利于对当事人正当权益的保护.建议在适当时机修改,以利拆迁纠纷当事人寻求司法救济时享有自由选择的权利.     

以恢复性司法理念构建我国刑事和解制度

反映恢复性司法精神理念的刑事和解制度体现了对被害人与犯罪人双方主体地位的尊重,寻求司法公正与效率的利益价值最大化,它被认为是在刑事诉讼价值多元化的理论指导下,为实现平抑社会冲突、修复被破坏社会关系、对被害人权益救济的一种理论选择。     

刑事和解负面问题探因——以其理论渊源为视角

刑事和解的负面问题并非仅仅是由制度局限所引起的,其理论渊源上存在的消极因素一直影响着刑事和解的实践运行和最终完善.平衡理论、叙说理论和恢复正义理论令刑事和解在刑法基本原则、刑法目的实现、司法效益提高、民众普遍认同等问题上出现的劣势不容忽视.继续深化和拓展刑事和解的理论渊源应当是刑事和解完善的重要组成部分.

Anxiously Awaiting the Future of Restorative Justice in the United States

Abstract

The problems of mass incarceration and other criminal justice system failures in the United States—such as racial disparities, wrongful convictions, and high recidivism rates—have reached a tipping point. For the first time in decades, coalitions of politicians on the left and right are seeking criminal justice reform. What is the place of restorative justice in these efforts? What is the depth and breadth of restorative justice implementation? How familiar is the American public with restorative justice? How successful is the restorative justice movement? In this article, we seek answers to these questions as we try to assess the future of restorative justice in the United States.     

Four Challenges in the Future of Restorative Justice

Abstract

Restorative justice (RJ) emerged in the late 1970s as an alternative to conventional youth and criminal justice practices. Since this time, RJ has experienced rapid growth in theory and practice. At the same time, much of this growth has come from expansion in lower-end criminal justice responses to crime, and in the increasing use of the term “restorative” for a widening host of practices and interventions. RJ has also faced problems related to its increasing institutionalization, resulting in divergence from earlier aims and goals. In this article, we set forth what we see as the four biggest challenges facing the future of RJ, namely problems related to definition, institutionalization, displacement, and relevance of RJ practices. We follow with discussion of possible future directions of RJ.     

Māori,Family Group Conferencing and the Mystifications of Restorative Justice

Abstract

The Family Group Conferencing (FGC) forum is often presented by policy entrepreneurs and advocates as indicative of the ability of restorative justice (RJ) to accommodate the cultural and justice needs of diverse populations. In this article, we present recent empirical research from one of the authors on Māori experiences of the forum. Drawing from this research, as well as other secondary sources, we demonstrate that far from being an exemplar of culturally appropriate justice practice, the forum is experienced by some Māori participants as one that encloses Indigenous culture and Indigenous participants within a Eurocentric, formulaic, and standardized process. The final section of our article reveals changes to the development of restorative policies and the practice in the Aotearoa New Zealand context that Māori participants believe are necessary to make the movement, and interventions such as the FGC, an empowering experience for Māori.

司法判决与民意冲突解读

在从身份到契约的变化中,法律程序起着极为重要的作用。司法判决与民意冲突的问题在其他国家同样存在,唯对于正处于社会转型中的中国而言,各界尚对程序正义、司法独立、技术理性等缺乏足够的认识及尊重。从当前司法活动中引发的诸多误解来看,本质上是程序正义与实质正义、技术理性与大众理性、司法权与行政权、司法权与知情权的冲突问题,对其善加解读具有一定的启示意义。
