为“行凶”辩护——刑法第20条第3款“行凶”语义的逻辑与价值

Defending for "Assault"——The Semantic Logic and Value of "Assault" in Paragraph 3,Article 20 of Criminal Law

现行刑法第20条第3款明确了对正在进行的严重危及人身安全的"行凶"可实施特殊防卫。多数学者认为此系立法的重大技术性失误,但透视"行凶"的语义逻辑与价值,可知该款所规定之"行凶"仍具有较大的合理性与科学性,故不宜废除。

The Paragraph 3,Article 20 of the Criminal Law in force clearly defines that special defence can be carried out against the ongoing 'assault' which seriously threatens one s life.Most scholars consider it as a great technical misplay of legislation.But when viewing from the semantic logic and value of 'assault',we can learn that the definition of the article is still rather reasonable and scientific.And it is not advisable to abolish it.
