法律视角下的未成年人犯罪概念辨析

An Analysis of the Concept of Minor Crime from the Perspective of Law

基于对未成年人的保护,学者们在采用未成年人犯罪概念过程中存在着各种各样的理解,存在着限缩未成年人概念含义的范围和扩大犯罪概念的内涵这两大重要缺陷。其主要原因在于不能精确地用法律视角看待未成年人犯罪概念中"未成年人"、"犯罪"两个概念。准确定义未成年人犯罪概念的方法是必须首先运用法律的标准将两个独立的概念框定,然后在此基础上进行有机整合。

Based on the protection of the minor,scholars have different kinds of understandings for the minor crime concept.there exist two major defects to narrow down the minor crime concept and to expand the scope of criminal connotation of the rime concept.The main reason is that the two concepts'the minor'and'crime'for the minor crimes cannot properly be treated from the perspective of law.The method for accurate definition of minor crime concept is that the law standards have to be applied first to defining the two independent concepts,and then they can be integrated on this basis.
