刑事辩护制度的文化内涵与立法完善

Cultural Connotation of the Criminal Defense System and Its Legislative Improvement

辩护制度产生于西方,作为法治国家的一项重要法律制度,蕴含着“独立、平等、权利、民主”的法律文化,体现了个人本位和权利本位的价值观。由于这些价值观与我国的传统文化存在巨大的冲突,使辩护制度在我国的实施碰到了种种困难。

The criminal defense system, as an important system of a legalized country, originated in the West and represents such cultural ideas as 'independence, equality, rights, democracy' and such values as individualism and the protection of human rights. As these values contradict the traditional Chinese culture, the practice of the defense system has met with great difficulties.
