我国假药犯罪立法完善之思考

Legislative Perfection on Crime of Producing or Selling Fake Medicine

药品安全向来是关系到国计民生的大事,在风险社会大背景下,有关假药犯罪的活动日益猖獗,犯罪手段层出不穷,使我国药品安全面临严峻挑战。《中华人民共和国刑法》第141条虽然明确规定了生产、销售假药罪,但仍存在一些不足,如对假药的定义不明确、忽视了其危害公共安全的性质、对构成要件中行为方式的规定过于狭窄等。要全面科学地明确假药的定义,建议将该罪设置在刑法的危害公共安全罪一章(刑法分则第二章)中,扩大其行为方式的范围,从而更好地打击假药犯罪活动,保护公众生命财产权益。

The safety of medicine has always been a major issue related to the national welfare and the people＇s livelihood. Against the background of risk society, the criminal activities related to fake drugs are growing increasingly rampant, with the criminal methods emerging in an endless stream and bringing a great challenge to medicine safety of China. Although the Article 141 of the Criminal Law of the People＇s Republic of China explicitly stipulates the crime of producing or selling fake medicine, there are still some deficiencies, such as unclear definition of fake medicine, neglecting the nature of endangering public security, narrow stipulations on the acts of crime in constitutive requirements, etc. The paper suggests that, in order to effectively fight against this crime and protect the people＇s life and property rights, it＇s necessary to explicitly stipulate the definition of fake medicine, extend the scope of criminal acts and put the crime in the Chapter of Crime of Endangering the Public Security（Chapter II in Specific Provisions）.
