协商性司法理念与认罪认罚从宽制度在刑事诉讼中的融合探索

The Integration of Consultative Judicial Concept and the System of Leniency for Guilty Plea in Criminal Proceedings

协商性司法视野下的认罪认罚从宽制度在刑事诉讼领域的实践中呈现出了一种新的方向,也提出了一些新的挑战。认罪认罚从宽制度的初心在于,通过鼓励行为人积极自愿认罪认罚,以达到提高诉讼效率、优化司法资源配置之效。然而,被告人权益的规范保障性、检察机关量刑建议权行使的合理性、司法机关之间的协作性等存在的负面问题却在认罪认罚从宽制度的进一步发展的过程中扮演着“绊脚石”的角色。因此,对协商性司法理念与认罪认罚从宽制度二者间如何进行深度融合的研究,不可避免地成为当前刑事诉讼制度改革的重要议题之一。通过“理念–程序–制度”的三大融合来进一步加强被告人权益保障、完善量刑建议标准、优化司法机关协作机制等措施,推动认罪认罚从宽制度在刑事诉讼中的高效落地,有助于促进刑事诉讼制度的整体创新与发展。

In the field of consultative justice, the system of leniency for guilty plea presents a new direction and raises some new challenges in the field of criminal procedure. The original intention of the lenient punishment system is to encourage the doer to confess voluntarily and actively to improve the efficiency of litigation and optimize the allocation of judicial resources. However, the negative issues of the standardized protection of the rights and interests of the defendant, the rationality of the procuratorial organs’ sentencing recommendation power, and the collaboration between judicial organs have played a “stumbling block” role in the further development of the leniency system for plea bargaining. Therefore, the study of how to deeply integrate the consultative judicial concept and the lenient punishment system of confession will inevitably become one of the important issues in the reform of the current criminal procedure system. Through the three integration of “concept, procedure and system”, we can further strengthen the protection of the rights and interests of defendants, improve the standard of sentencing recommendations, optimize the cooperation mechanism of judicial organs, promote the efficient implementation of the system of leniency for guilty plea in the criminal procedure, and help to promote the overall innovation and development of the criminal procedure system.
