职务犯罪惩治的国际化趋势与我国的对策——以《联合国反腐败公约》对我国刑法修正案的影响为视角

Internationalization Trend of Punishing Duty Crimes and Countermeasures of China——From the Perspective of Effects of the UN Convention against Corruption upon China's Criminal Law Amendments

《联合国反腐败公约》是一部包含刑法规范在内的兼具国际法特征的国际刑法规范,是国际刑法渊源的重要组成部分,奠定了反腐败国际合作的法律基础。这部公约在职务犯罪惩治的立法上,体现了犯罪构成要件设计严密、完整、科学、合理的特点。中国在职务犯罪惩治的国际化方面尚存在种种现实问题,尤其是在职务犯罪惩治的刑法立法方面,需要明确"严而不厉"的立法指导思想。《联合国反腐败公约》在我国生效后,全国人大常委会相继通过了三个《刑法修正案》,在相关职务犯罪的规定上根据《联合国反腐败公约》作出相应的修改和完善,适应了职务犯罪惩治国际化的趋势。

The United Nations Convention against Corruption was of international criminal law norms con- taining criminal norm characteristics of international law, which is an important component of international criminal law sources, and laid the legal basis for international cooperation against corruption. The Conven- tion＇s legislation on punishing duty crime embodies the constitutive elements of crime characteristics of tight, complete, and a scientific and rational design. Yet there are all kinds of practical problems in the internationalization of punishing duty crimes in China. In terms of guiding ideology for legislation on punishing duty crimes China must establish the ＂strict but not cool＂ principles of legislation. In China after the entry into force of the Convention, the NPC have adopted three amendments to the criminal law and made a very good revision and improvement in defining related crimes on the basis of the provisions of the Convention adapting to the trend of internationalization of punishing duty crimes.
