刑事证据辩护的理论反思

Theoretical Reflections on the Defense of Criminal Evidences

刑事证据辩护作为辩护形态越来越多地出现在当前司法实践当中。从历史发展角度来看,刑事证据辩护的形成与证据规则的发展之间存在一种共生关系。我国当前的司法改革和刑事诉讼基本格局的变革,为刑事证据辩护的形成与发展提供了较为有利的外部制度环境。作为一种日渐独立的辩护形态,刑事证据辩护在辩护的内容、辩护的手段、辩护的对象和目标上都与传统的辩护形态存在重要的区别。我国当前刑事司法制度还存在诸多制约证据辩护展开的制度障碍,需要加以进一步改革和理顺。

Criminal evidence defense happens more and more frequently in current judiciary practice. Histor- ically, the appearance of criminal evidence defense is closely associated with the development of evidence rules. Justice reformation and the changing format of criminal justice action in current China have created a friendly platform for the formation of criminal evidence defense. As a new form of defense, criminal evidence defense differs from the traditional defenses in the defense content, defense strategy, defense object and purpose. There are still many institutional obstacles for criminal evidence defense in current Chinese judicial system that needs to be reformed.
