普遍管辖权原则的法理探析

The Legal Theory on Universal Jurisdiction

"Crime is no longer local,or even a national phenomenon,but an international phenomenon."[1〗普遍管辖权作为主权国家享有的一种维护国际社会秩序、惩处跨国犯罪的权力,很大程度上弥补了国家内部刑事管辖权在有效制裁跨国罪犯上的缺漏。在国际犯罪日益猖獗的今天,虽然该制度在打击国际犯罪的力度和效果方面发挥了不可忽视的作用,但这一制度存有不可避免的缺漏之处。文章试图通过对普遍管辖权原则的分析,以期对该制度的完善有所助益。

＂Crime is no longer local,or even a national phenomenon,but an international phenomenon.＂Universal jurisdiction is the right for sovereign states to maintain social order in the international community and penalize transnational crime and to a great extent,it bridges the gaps which the domestic penal jurisdiction has in penalizing the transnational crime effectively.Nowadays,transnational crime activities are increasingly rampant.Although universal jurisdiction plays an important role in fighting international crime efficiently,it still has its own inevitable defects.This paper is trying to analyze the principle of the universal jurisdiction to provide some useful information for its improvement and perfection.
