两大法系刑法学之差异对中国的影响及中国刑法学的发展取向

Chinese Criminal Law and Its Orientation Influenced by Differences of Civil Law System and Case Law System

中国刑法学的理论和实践已经受到并将继续受到大陆法系和英美法系刑法学的影响,两大法系的差异特别是理念的差异对中国的影响至为深刻但却有不同的表现,由此出发我们在创建中国自身刑法学理论的过程中又将如何有所选择、有所侧重地借鉴和吸取两大法系的精髓和营养成分,应当是中国刑法学无法回避的时代命题。在今天,英美法系特别是美国刑法学保障人权、坚守程序、推崇实用的刑法理念值得已显过度推崇德日刑法学的中国学界的关注和借鉴,只有这样才有可能避免"曲高和寡"和"偏信则暗"的理论危机,而重新发掘和吸取法治的"本土资源",也可以助推实现中国刑法学理念、刑法理论和刑法运用方法的更新和重构。

The theory and practice of Chinese criminal law have been and will be affected by criminal lawof civil law system and case law system,whose ideological differences especially have the deepest influencesupon Chinese criminal law with different manifestations. Accordingly,during the period of building up thetheory of Chinese criminal law,how to choose from and emphasize on civil law system and case law system withlearning from essences and absorbing the nutrition becomes one inevitable topic of our time. Nowadays,thevalues of protecting human rights,sticking to procedure and respecting pragmatism of case law system especiallyAmerican criminal law are worthy to be learned from and focused on by Chinese,who are admiring specificskills of German and Japanese criminal law too much. Only by this way can we avoid obscurity and prejudice ofour theory. Rediscovering and using traditional resources on rule of law are beneficial to update and reconstructideology of Chinese criminal law,theory of criminal law and skills of criminal law.
