论边沁犯罪补偿理论对刑事附带民事诉讼制度的借鉴

On the Learning of Bentham's Theory of Crime Compensation by the System of Civil Suit Collateral to Criminal Proceedings of China

贯穿边沁著作始终的功利主义思想影响深远,其立法理论中提出的犯罪补偿理论对当今社会仍有现实的借鉴意义。我国的刑事附带民事诉讼制度存在诸多弊端,归根结底体现在作为犯罪被害人的权益难以通过此制度得到有效救济和恢复,许多被害人受犯罪侵害后终身处于贫困境地,身心极度痛苦,而我国又没有建立国家补偿制度。因此,在此背景下有必要借鉴边沁的理论,建立起补偿内容多元化、方式多样化的犯罪补偿机制,完善刑事附带民事诉讼制度。

The utilitarianism which runs through Bentham＇s works affects deeply. Bentham＇s theory of crime compensation in his theory of legislation still has a realistic significance. There are many limitations in our system of civil suit collateral to criminal proceedings. The intrinsic one is that the interests of criminal victims can＇t get effective relief and rehabilitation by the system. Many victims fall into poverty life and extreme pain after intruded by offender. However our country doesn＇t construct the compensation system by country. Thus, it needs to learn Bentham＇s theory to establish a crime compensation mechanism with diverse contents and forms , to perfect the system of civil suit collateral to criminal proceedings.
