接轨:挑战与机遇的来临——论加入《联合国反腐败公约》后中国刑事法制的自我调整

The Arrival of Challenges and Opportunities:Self-adjustments of Chinese Criminal Law and Institutions after China Acceding to the United Nations Convention against Corruption

我国现行反腐败刑事法律制度与《联合国反腐败公约》存在一定的差距。从实体法方面看 ,该公约对诸多行为的犯罪化态度与我国现行刑法规定很不一致 ;从程序法以及证据方面 ,该公约提出的诸多要求 ,需要我国现行法律积极回应 ;从反腐败国际合作看 ,如何加强国际合作 ,创造稳定的国际合作机制 ,对于我国今后反腐败工作的开展具有重要意义。该公约所建立的诸多机制 ,为我国积极预防和遏制腐败犯罪提供了很大的机遇 ,同时也对我国现行刑事法制提出了挑战。如何根据我国实际与该公约的规定相衔接 ,是我国目前需要认真解决的一大课题。

There are certain disparities between current Chinese criminal laws and institutions against corruption and the United Nations Convention against Corruption. From the viewpoint of substantive law, the attitude of the Convention towards many activities about whether they are crimes is quite different from the provisions in Chinese current criminal law. From the viewpoint of proceeding law and evidence, many requirements by the Convention still wait current Chinese laws for positively reacting. Form the viewpoint of international cooperation against corruption, creating steady international cooperating mechanism has important significance for the anti-corruption work in our country afterwards. In fact, many mechanisms established by the Convention provide considerable opportunities for our country positively preventing and containing corruption crimes, at the same time they also pose considerable challenges to our country’s current criminal laws and institutions. An important problem which needs to be seriously solved now in our country is how to connect with the provisions of the Convention on the basis of our country’s practical conditions.
