解读“国家尊重和保障人权”——析宪法修改对刑事诉讼法再修改的影响

“The State Values and Safeguards Human Rights”:a Multi-dimensional Reading

修改后的宪法确立了“国家尊重和保障人权”原则。从修宪的背景、修宪的精神以及立法机关的解释可以解读出 ,该原则强调人权的个体性、非工具性和非功利性。我国现行刑事诉讼法的目的具有极强的功利性 ,对权利保障的规定具有浓厚的工具色彩。因此 ,刑事诉讼法再修改时 ,应当以修宪所确立的人权保障内涵和要求为检视标准 ,重新界定刑事诉讼法的目的 ,确立或修改相关的诉讼原则、制度和规则。

The principle of “the state values and safeguards human rights” is established after the amendment of the constitutional law. It can be read from the background, spirit and the interpretation of legislative bodies of the amendments that this principle means the individuality, non\|instrumentalism and non\|utilitarianism of human rights. The criminal procedural law applying in China has strong significance of utilitarianism, and the stipulations of rights protection have the color of instrumentalism. Therefore, during the amendment of criminal procedural law in the future, the principle set up by the constitution should be abided by and the aim of, litigation principles, system and rules of criminal procedural law should be re\|constructed.
