刑法中的无形财产基本问题研究

On the Basic Problems of Intangible Property in Criminal Law

刑法中的无形财产概念可以追溯到民法中无体物概念的产生,这两个定义在"物即财产"观念的影响下几无区分。同样,民法中对无形财产指代内容的不同解读也影响到刑法理论对这一概念内涵的界定。刑法中的无形财产与信息财产应是相同的定义,都是依赖于人们的主观抽象思维认识或感知体现其经济价值的财产形式。无形财产的本质特征是效用性,类型特征是无形性,后者是由信息的存在方式决定的,也是无形财产区别于有形财产的重要标志。

The concept of intangible property can be traced back to the concept of the res incorporales in civil law,and they two are almost indistinguishable under the idea of ＂res is property＂. Similarly,the different interpretations of the reference content of intangible property in civil law also affect the definition of its concept in criminal law. In criminal law,the definition of intangible property and information property should be the same,both of which depend on people＇s subjective abstract thinking or perception to reflect its economic value. The essential feature of the intangible property is the utility and the type trait is intangibility,in which the latter is determined by the existence mode of information and also the important sign that distinguish it from the tangible property.
