摘要
罪刑法定原则必须与时俱进,刑法规范内容的多样化必然带来罪刑法定原则内容的多样化,但罪刑法定原则长期被学界定位为犯罪与刑罚的法定化,无法充分体现其限制刑罚权滥用的制度价值。随着刑事司法中的最大问题由罪刑擅断到量刑不公的转变,罪刑法定原则的内涵亦应该有所拓展,即从"犯罪与刑罚之法定化"的二元格局迈向"犯罪、刑罚与量刑之法定化"的三元格局。其中,评价范围与评价方法的法定化,就是量刑法定化的题中之义。
The principle of legality shall advance with the times, the diversitication ot the contents ot crim- inal law will inevitably lead to the diversification of the principle of legality. However, for a long time the prin- ciple of legality is defined as the 1 embody egalization of crime and penalty in the legal community, thus it cannot fully its system value of imposing restriction on abusing power of punishment. The most serious problem in crime and penalty" shall be transformed into the ternary pattern of "legalization of crime, penalty and senten- cing". Therefore, the legalization of scope and measures of evaluation is the key issue in legally prescribed punishment.
