论我国刑事审判直接、言词原则的完善

On Perfection of the Principle of Direct Evidence for Criminal Adjudication in Our Country

直接、言词原则是我国刑事诉讼的一项基本原则，对法官查清证据，进而查清事实，公正判案具有关键性的意义，但我国新刑事诉讼法对此仍规定不力，缺乏具体落实措施。为此，有必要完善现行刑事审判直接、言词原则，一是规定证人拒证的法律责任；二是完善证人出庭作证的保护措施；三是建立规范的证人出庭经济补偿制度；四是加强法制宣传教育，提高公民的法律意识。

The principle of direct evidence is one of the basic principles for instituting penal proceedings in our coun-try, it is of key importance for judges to check up on the testimony, then the facts, and to have a fair verdict. But thenew code of criminal procedure in our country lacks concrete workable measures. Therefore, it is necaseary to perfect thecurrent principle of direct evidence for criminal adjudication. The first is to stipulate legal responsibility the witness shouldhear if he refuse to give evidence. The Second is to perfect the protective measures for the witness appearing in court. Thethird is to establish standard economic compensation systems for the witness appearing in court. The fourth is to strengthenpropaganda and education in legality to raise the citizens' legal consciousness.
