摘要
中欧国家拥有多种多样的刑罚文化,但罕见的比较研究通常只关注国家刑罚法典或公众对犯罪和刑罚态度的跨国衡量标准。本文从刑事立法、法院的实际判决实践和公众的惩罚偏好三个方面对六个司法管辖区的惩罚性进行了比较:奥地利、捷克、德国、匈牙利、波兰和斯洛伐克。惩罚偏好以中欧社会调查(Central European Social Survey)的新数据为特色,该调查要求受访者就五种假设犯罪推荐合适的刑罚。我们发现,公众的偏好与国内司法实践密切相关,但与一国刑法规定的最高刑罚关系不大。特别是,德国的受访者比其他国家的受访者更少受到惩罚,这与德国法院的刑罚温和性相呼应。
Punitiveness of society and criminal policy in six Central European countries
The countries of Central Europe are home to diverse penal cultures but rare comparative studies typically focus only on national penal codifications or on cross-country measures of public attitudes towards crime and punishment. This article compares three dimensions of punitiveness – penal legislation, actual sentencing practice of the courts, and punishment preferences of the general public – in six jurisdictions: Austria, Czechia, Germany, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia. Punishment preferences features new data from the Central European Social Survey, in which respondents were asked to recommend suitable sentences for five hypothetical crimes. We found public preferences relate closely to the domestic judicial practice but less so to the maximum penalties provided in a country's penal code. In particular, participants based in Germany proved far less punitive than others, which echoes the penal moderation of German courts.
期刊介绍:
The European Journal of Criminology is a refereed journal published by SAGE publications and the European Society of Criminology. It provides a forum for research and scholarship on crime and criminal justice institutions. The journal published high quality articles using varied approaches, including discussion of theory, analysis of quantitative data, comparative studies, systematic evaluation of interventions, and study of institutions of political process. The journal also covers analysis of policy, but not description of policy developments. Priority is given to articles that are relevant to the wider Europe (within and beyond the EU) although findings may be drawn from other parts of the world.
