受贿罪量刑影响因素问题研究

Factors Influencing Penalty Measurement of Bribe-Taking Crime

当前,社会公众对受贿罪的量刑产生了强烈的失衡感。判断受贿罪量刑失衡状况是否存在,不能只凭感觉,而须以生效裁判文书以及数据统计分析为基础,对影响受贿罪量刑结果的各类因素进行定量研究。从定量分析结果看,影响受贿罪量刑结果的因素有很多,其中影响力最大的是受贿数额;但受贿数额十万元以上的案件量刑失衡明显,且数量较多。究其原因,主要是受贿罪法定量刑幅度设置不合理。因此,有必要修改将受贿数额直接写入法条的立法模式,代之以数额较大、数额巨大、数额特别巨大与情节严重程度相结合的立法方式,并在司法解释中确定相对具体的数额范围,以实现量刑均衡。

Presently, the public have a strong sense of imbalance in the penalty measurement of bribe-taking crimes. Nevertheless, that whether there exists imbalance in it should not be decided by intuition, but by effective judgment and the statistical analysis as the foundation. That is, there should be quantitative study on all kinds of factors that may influence judgment. My quantitative analysis suggests that there are many such factors,among which the bribing amount is the most important one. In reality,im balance phenomenon is apparent and has a high percentage in the caseload of bribery above 100,000. The main reason lies in that the setting of penalty measurement range is not reasonable. Therefore, it is necessary to modify the legislation mode of bribery amount. That is, the legislation mode should take the degree of bribery seriousness into account and set up respective criterion for each of the following range：comparatively huge,huge,and particular huge with severe degree.
