《刑事诉讼法》再修改中“证据章”重构——以大陆法系国家为主要参照

Reconstructing the"Evidence Chapter"in the Revision of the Criminal Procedure Law:Taking Civil Law Countries’experience as reference

我国刑事证据法规跟随近现代《刑事诉讼法》逐步修订而发展,目前我国刑事证据立法沿袭大陆法系传统,未设单独刑事证据法典,刑事证据法规置于《刑事诉讼法》整体框架中。对比同为大陆法系立法模式的法国、德国、意大利,我国刑事证据法规逻辑性明显较弱,且法规内容缺乏体系性。职权主义背景下欧陆三国的刑事证据立法体例在本土环境中各具特色,通过考察三国刑事证据法规体例,探究维系非法典化立法模式基础上重构我国“证据章”,以回应《刑事诉讼法》再修改背景中刑事证据法规体例架构的热议。

The development of China’s criminal evidence laws follows the gradual revision of the Criminal Procedure Law.Currently,the legislation of China's criminal evidence laws follows the civil law system legislation tradition.Without setting an independent criminal evidence code,criminal evidence laws are integrated into the overall framework of the Criminal Procedure Law.Compared with France,Germany,and Italy,which apply the same legislative model of the civil law system,China's criminal evidence laws maintain a notable lack of coherence and systematic structure.Under the influence of inquisitorial system,the criminal evidence legislation in the three European countries,with the incorporation of local environments,have their own characteristics.By examining the legislative frameworks of criminal evidence laws in the three jurisdictions,this paper aims to probes the reconstruction of China's"Evidence Chapter"in the legislative model of noncodification.This paper shall be a valuable contribution to the heated debates on the structural framework of criminal evidence laws in the context of the ongoing revision of the Criminal Procedural Law.
