从英美法系中的陪审团制度看犯罪的社会侵犯本质——以涂尔干的社会团结理论为分析框架

Invading upon Society as Essence of Crime—From the Point of View of the Jury Institution in U.K.& U.S

文章运用涂尔干的社会团结理论来分析英美法系中的陪审团制度。陪审团实际上代表了社会的集体情感(集体意识),由陪审团来决定罪与非罪的司法制度实际上揭示了犯罪的社会侵犯本质:犯罪是对作为维系某一社会或社区团结纽带的集体情感、集体意识的严重伤害和严重侵犯。

In this article, the author uses the Social Solidarity Theory advanced by E. Durkheim to analyze the jury institution in U. K. and U.S. It is left to the jury to judge a criminal, which uncovers the essence of the crime as the invading upon the society.
