惩罚与保障：并重还是侧重？——刑事诉讼理念的重构：从现行刑事诉讼法第一条出发

Punishment and protecting： Punishment and safeguarding——Paying equal attention or emphasizing particularly on one

寻找惩罚犯罪与保障人权之间的平衡点，既是刑事诉讼理论永恒的主题，也是世界各国司法实践的难题。而二者并重还是有所侧重，不仅是一个事关刑事诉讼理念并由此决定一国刑事诉讼法的模式、原则以及具体制度建构的核心问题，在中国，还是一个能否革除刑诉积弊、实现宪法修正案保障人权的大问题。在中国热研刑事诉讼法再修改之际，这更是再修改的刑诉法生或死的关隘问题。我们应当放弃固守多年的并重论，倡导“侧重论”，即侧重保障人权。

Finding the balancing point between punishing crimes and protecting human rights, is not only the permanent main topic of the criminal procedure theory, but also the difficulty of the juridical practice all over the world. Partial emphasis or balance emphasis between the punishment and protection, is not only a core problem concerning criminal procedure concept, which decided the mode, principle, and specific system construction of the criminal procedure law in one country, but also a big problem concerning abolishing the deep-rooted evils in criminal procedure and practicing the protection of human rights gifted by constitution amendment in China. When the modifying criminal procedure law is becoming a hot topic in China, it is a key problem concerning the live or death of the modified criminal procedure law. We should give up the balancing emphasis theory which is sticking for many years, instead, advocate the “partial emphasis theory”--partial emphasis on protecting human rights.
