讲座摘要:
近年来,伴随着社会、特别是技术的不断发展,新兴问题层出不穷。相应地,为应对这些新兴问题,各国立法者的刑事立法活动也日趋频繁。传统上,我们更加关注从法哲学、法教义学、伦理学等视角对这些立法活动进行评判。但实际上,刑事立法是一个极为宽泛的主题,可以从更多不同维度对其进行观察。例如实证研究的视角就往往会被人们忽视。但实际上,实证知识在整个立法进程中都发挥着重要作用。希尔根多夫教授将结合德国、中国的具体事例说明,现实科学——或者法统计学、法社会学、犯罪学等学科的研究在立法目标的选择、目标实现可能性及立法必要性的判断,以及最为重要的——刑法规定实际有效性判断,乃至于法律后续效果观察和法律修改的过程中所发挥的作用。以此说明跨学科的、理性的、有实证支撑的立法论对于刑事立法所起到的积极作用。
