刑事政策概念新探

刑事政策概念是刑事政策研究的首要问题。刑事政策的实践古已有之,但刑事政策的概念却出现得比较晚,一般认为,"刑事政策"一词,开始使用于18世纪末的德国。在对国外学者、我国台湾学者以及我国内地学者诸多观点分别进行述评的基础上认为,下一个世界通用而又简明的刑事政策定义是比较困难的。从刑事政策制定者的角度出发,可以认为:我国(内地)的刑事政策是我们党和国家为了有效地打击和预防犯罪,依据我国一定时期的犯罪态势及其成因而制定的一系列行动准则。这是一个狭义上的刑事政策概念,它可以进一步被分成基本的刑事政策和具体的刑事政策。若从刑事政策研究者的角度出发,为了能使其研究更为深入和有效,则应从广义上把握刑事政策的概念。
