刑法第388条的思考——写在刑法修正案(七)草案后

On Article 388 of the Criminal Law——Written after the Mmendment(7th) to the Criminal Law was Drafted

新的刑法修正案草案对斡旋受贿的有关规定有了新的调整,扩大了这一罪的犯罪主体范围。而新的变化引起了对没有变化的原条文中"利用本人职权或者地位形成的便利条件"这一犯罪构成要件存在的反思。国家工作人员对其他国家工作人员存在着不可避免的制约关系,当利用其他国家工作人员的职权时,行为人的国家工作人员身份必然产生影响,刑法没必要将便利条件设为刑法要件。刑法第388条与一般受贿相比有着自己的独立罪状,应该有自己的独立罪名,斡旋受贿。

The new revised draft to the criminal law has changed some regulations about mediation bribe, enlarging the scope of subjects of crime. These changes cause our reflection On the requisite in constitution of crime provided in the original article： ＂ taking the advantage of the convenient conditions of your post or authority ＂. There is inevitable restrictive relationship among government employees. When an actor makes use of another employee＇ s authority, his own status must be impacted. It is unnecessary for the criminal law to regard the convenient condition as a requisite in constitution of crime. Compared with other charges of bribe, Article 388 has its special charge in an indictment. So it should have its own charge, mediation bribe.
