裁判员制度的刑法基础:基于总论的考察

The Criminal Law Foundation of the Referee System:Based on the general survey

裁判员制度,作为参审制的一种,势必对刑法产生影响。从刑法总论的意义上反思裁判员制度与刑法的关系,可以认为,裁判员制度提供了市民监视法官工作情况的制度体系。在这种状况下,裁判员制度必须获得更为浅显易懂的刑法解释论的支撑。法官必须向裁判员说明刑法中复杂的法律概念的“真正意义所在”,在此过程中,刑法解释论中复杂的法律概念,将以更容易理解的形式产生新的定义和新的理解,但并不会因此而失去理论高度。

The referee system,as one of the trial system,is bound to have an impact on the criminal law.Reflecting on the relationship between the referee system and the criminal law in the sense of the general theory of criminal law,we can think that the referee system provides a system for citizens to monitor the work of judges.In this situation,the referee system must be supported by the interpretation theory of criminal law.The judge must explain to the judges the“true meaning”of the complex legal concepts in criminal law.In this process,the complex legal concepts in the interpretation of criminal law will produce new definitions and new understandings in a more understandable form,but will not lose the theoretical height.
