非罪化的程序法进路研究

The Procedural Law Approach to Decriminalisation

积极刑法观在当前社会转型时期占主导地位,刑事立法呈现活跃状态,由此导致犯罪圈的不断扩张。然而,刑事实体法的出罪功能由于具有内生性的制度缺陷,无法有效发挥其应有的出罪调控作用,在当前一段时期内,非罪化只能依赖于刑事程序法来实现。随着“少捕慎诉慎押”刑事司法政策的确立,认罪认罚从宽制度以及涉案企业合规不起诉等制度的探索和推进,程序非罪化的功能逐步扩张。故而,我们应当更多地关注程序非罪化的文本叙述和实践表达,在构建程序非罪化体系的同时,着力完善非罪化的程序法进路。

In the current period of social transition, a positive view of criminal law prevails and criminal legislation is active, leading to the expansion of the criminal circle. However, due to the endogenous deficiencies of the criminal law, the decriminalisation function of the substantive law cannot effectively play its proper role in regulating crime, and for a period of time in the future,decriminalisation can only be achieved through the criminal procedure law. With the establishment of the criminal justice policy of “fewer arrests, cautious prosecutions, and prudent detentions”, and the exploration and promotion of the system of leniency in plea bargaining and the system of non-prosecution of corporate compliance involved in cases, the function of decriminalisation is gradually expanding. Therefore, we should pay more attention to the textual narrative and practical expression of procedural decriminalization, and focus on improving the procedural law of decriminalization while constructing a system of procedural decriminalization.
