美国的“三振出局法”及其对我国累犯制度的启示

America's"Three-strikes law"and Its Implications on China Recidivism System

从比较法的视角出发,介绍了美国的"三振出局法"的立法过程和主要内容,并对美国国内和中国学者对该法案的相关评价进行了理性评析。认为我国对美国的"三振出局法"不能一味地批判,应采取"有限借鉴"的态度,理性地借鉴此法案的合理成分和立法精神来对我国累犯制度进行重构,即在现行累犯分类的基础之上,增设危险累犯,并对其实施加重处罚至10年以上有期徒刑直至终身监禁。

From the prospective of comparative law,the paper introduced the legislative process and main contents about America＇s＂three- strikes law＂.As for the comments both from America and China,the paper gave a reasonable analysis.Our conclusion is that China should adopt a＂limited reference＂attitude towards this system rather than simply criticize. Besides,we should reconstruct China recidivism system by drawing the reasonable elements and legislative thoughts from this system.That is to say,as for the classification of recidivism,China should set a new type called risk recidivist on the ground of the present provision.In addition,risk recidivist＇s term of imprisonment should be elevated from 10 years imprisonment up to life imprisonment.
