论激情犯不应作为法定量刑情节

The Emotion Offender should not be Regarded as the Circumstances to Measure Penalty

激情犯,是指行为人因受外界的刺激,在极度强烈的情绪状态下实施的犯罪,包括社会激情犯和反社会激情犯,由于对反社会激情犯不能从宽处罚,而对社会激情犯从宽处罚已有相应规则可供适用。因此,规定激情犯没有必要。另外,没有适当的立法模式以及激情犯认定的困难,加上主观认定标准反而与规定激情犯原意背道而驰,故规定激情犯没有可行性。

The emotion offender refers to a crime that is implemented under the extremely strong mood, including the social and the antisocial emotion offender. The anti-social emotion offender should be punished strictly, while to the social emotion offender, we have a corresponding rule to apply. So, it is unnecessary to stipulate the emotion offender. In addition, because of lack of appropriate legislative mode, the difficulty to assert it, and the assert standard opposite with the stipulation, it is not feasible to stipulate the emotion offender.
