犯罪边界问题的处理——《治安管理处罚法》与《刑法》的竞合问题

我国的治安管理处罚法与刑法对一些行为在构成要件方面作出了完全相同或者基本相同的规定，同一行为，可能既符合刑法规定的行为构成要件，又符合治安管理处罚法的行为构成要件，存在斟酌是作为犯罪还是作为违法行为处理的问题。在处理违法与犯罪边界问题时，检察机关应当发挥重要作用，准确把握行为性质，履行检察职权。

On the Border of Criminalization

In practice, it is very difficult to settle the cases which violate both Public Security Administration Punishments Law and Criminal Law, if there are no clear standards to distinguish between illegal acts and criminal offences. When dealing with the overlapping of Public Security Administration Punishments Law and Criminal Law, the procuratorates should play a important role, ascertain the nature of the acts, and exercise procuratorial power in accordance with law.
