刑事责任能力在犯罪构成中的重新定位

Re-location of Ability of Taking Criminal Responsibility in Criminal Tatbestand

因刑事责任能力免罪,使得司法实务中出现了罪刑失衡现象,由此引发了关于刑事责任能力在犯罪构成中重新定位的争议及探讨。鉴于现行法律体系下,刑事责任能力在犯罪构成中的定位可能导致罪刑不均衡、对侵害法益的行为无力给予否定评价、不利于保护无刑事责任能力人的合法权益等原因,应当剔除出犯罪构成,不作为定罪依据,仅作为量刑依据,以体现刑法的公正性与科学性,符合防卫社会的要求。

Exemptions of criminal punishment for the lack of ability of taking criminal responsibility, which has given rise to a great deal of cases of imbalance between crime and penalty, have sparked a heated discussion and rethinking on the role of ability of taking criminal responsibility in criminal tatbestand. For the reasons of impotent negative evaluation and insufficient protection to victims caused by the unreasonable position of criminal capacity, it shall be taken away from the tatbestand as a basic element to consider to manifest the justice and reasoning of criminal law and meet the need of social defense.
