论死刑复核期限制度之建构

On the System Construction of Time Limit for Review of Death Penalty

针对设立死刑复核期限的主张,反对者从公正、人权、死刑民意、程序拖延利益等角度提出了针锋相对的批判,但这些观点本身并不成立,死刑复核期限具有坚实的制度基础。遵循充分、适度、差别、封闭等基本原则,并结合200份死刑复核刑事裁定书反映出的我国死刑复核期限运行实践,建议重构死刑复核期限制度。

In terms of the proposition of setting time limit for the review of death penalty, the opponents post the tit for tat criticisms from the aspects of fairness, human rights, public opinions over death penalty and benefits from procedural delay. However, all these viewpoints are untenable since time limit for review of death penalty has a solid foundation of system. Following the basic principles of adequacy, moderation, differentiation and closure, along with real practice of China＇ s time limit for death penalty review reflected through 200 criminal verdicts of death penalty review, the paper suggests to re -establish the system of time limit of death penalty review.
