Under construction: Brain formation, culpability, and the criminal justice system

Should adolescents be held as culpable for their behavior as adults? Adolescence is a tumultuous time, full of change and transformation. This paper examines the development of brain functions and cognitive capabilities of teenagers. It explores the effect of alcohol use on brain development and the fundamental cognitive differences between adolescents and adults. This knowledge, coupled with the assessment of developmental perspective, suggests that the adultification of youth (or waiver to adult court) is unduly harsh for youth whose brains have not fully formed.     

刑法典修订以来若干重要理论问题新探索(上)──《刑法教科书》(2000年版)的新发展

刑法法典化和刑法法典成熟化是刑事立法现代化的一种趋势;对犯罪概念应坚持形式定义与实质定义的结合与统一;刑法上主要有两种犯罪分类方法,一是根据犯罪的性质,一是根据犯罪的严重程度;犯罪构成可以分为法定的犯罪构成与现实的犯罪构成;事业单位、机关、团体、民办非企业单位作为法人犯罪主体时,应当对其内涵予以正确界定;犯罪客体是犯罪主体的犯罪行为所侵害的、为我国刑法所保护的社会利益,它既是犯罪的组成部分,又是犯罪构成的组成部分;应在刑法上规定罪过的概念并坚持“无罪过不为罪,也不受刑罚”的罪过原则,罪过不仅指故意与过失,而且还包括其他因素,罪过不仅有存在与否的区别,还有程度的差别;“持有”作为犯罪行为的形式,通常表现为作为,但有时也表现为不作为,甚至表现为两者的交叉,因此把它视为犯罪行为的第三种形式亦未尝不可;国家对犯罪人及其犯罪行为的评价和判断,属于刑事责任的内容;犯罪和犯罪构成的质变,由组成要素的性质、数量、结合方式三个因素决定,研究犯罪和犯罪构成的质变与部分质变,可以以此来构建刑法分则理论新体系。     

Comments on Doug Husak: The Low Cost of Recognizing (and of Ignoring) the Limited Relevance of Intentions to Permissibility

Doug Husak frames a worry that makes sense in the abstract, but in reality, there is not much to worry about. The thesis that intentions are irrelevant to permissibility (IIP) is a straw man. There are reasons to think that the moral significance of intentions is not properly registered in criminal law. But the moral basis for criticism is not nearly as extreme as the IIP, and the fixes are not that hard to make. Lastly, if they are not made, some people may not get the punishments they deserve, and there will be some extra inequities in the criminal law as a result. But these inequities are not so great that change must be made now. The moral categories that are used may be too crude, but they are also familiar and easy to work with, and that counts for something.

First degree murder and complicity—conditions for parity of culpability between principal and accomplice

The Law Commission for England and Wales has published for consultation a proposal for an offence of first degree murder. A person found guilty of this offence whether as a principal or an accomplice will receive a mandatory sentence of life imprisonment. It is argued that the conditions for liability as an accomplice put forward by the Commission do not fulfil the Commission's aspiration for a "parity of culpability" between principals and accomplices. The discussion has general implications for the reform of complicity laws.
