刑法本身:透过刑法文本看刑法

Criminal Law pe se: Perceiving Criminal Law Through the Criminal Law Text

无论在立法过程还是司法过程中,现象学方法使我们看到的都是作为社会互动关系的沟通,而不只是文本。刑法文本是刑法本身的基础性沟通媒介,刑事法庭是其关键性沟通媒介,两者同等重要,不可或缺。传统刑法学的文本主义刑法观的思维形态是抽象思维形态。我国学者在借鉴德日刑法学时,应从辩证思维上升到立体思维,而不应从辩证思维倒退到抽象思维。调处刑法正义的矛盾群,不仅要靠辩证逻辑,还要靠系统逻辑,二者统一为司法逻辑。在司法逻辑上,控方的基本立场是合目的性(预防刑论),辩方的基本立场是平等性(报应刑论),法官的立场则是立足于报应,兼顾预防。

In both legislative and judicial processes,phenomenological methods enable us to see communication that served as social interaction rather than a merely text.The text of criminal law serves as the basic communication medium of criminal law itself,and the criminal court key communication medium.Both of them are equally important and indispensable to each other.In traditional criminal law,the thought pattern of textualist view on criminal law is abstract.In learning from German and Japanese criminal law,Chinese scholars should step up from dialectical thinking to three-dimensional thinking,instead of retrogressing from dialectical thinking to abstract thinking.Mediating the contradiction of criminal justice depends not only on the dialectical logic,but also on the systematic logic,both of which are unified into the judicial logic.In the judicial logic,the position of the prosecution is purposiveness(the theory of preventive punishment);of the defense,is equality(the theory of retribution);and of the judge,is retribution and prevention.
