Also On the Function of Personal Danger in Chinese Criminal Law——Discuss with Researcher You Wei &Judge Lu Jianhong

人身危险性的最初含义是犯罪可能性,包括初犯可能性和再犯可能性。人身危险性的性质是双面的,既可能是社会危害性的内容,也可能是刑事责任的内容。当立法者将人身危险性作为某些犯罪的构成要件时,其能决定社会危害性的有无,是定罪的根据,具有出入罪的功能;当立法者未将人身危险性作为犯罪的构成要件时,其仅影响刑事责任的大小,是量刑的根据,具有影响刑罚轻重的功能。无论在定罪活动中,还是在量刑活动中,人身危险性的功能均是双向的,而非单向的。

The original meaning of personal danger refers to the crime-proneness,including the first offender's and recommit offender's criminal tendencies.The property of personal danger is double-faced.It can be the content of social harm,or the content of criminal liability. When personal danger is stipulated as a constitutive element of some crime,it can determine whether social harm exits,so it acts as a foundation of conviction and has the function of convicting or non-convicting.When it is not stipulated as a constitutive element of a crime,it can only influence the quantity of criminal liability,so it acts as a foundation of sentence and has the function of increasing or decreasing punishment.Whether in the process of conviction or sentence,the function of personal danger is double-way,rather than one-way.
