摘要
人身危险性最基本的涵义 ,是指再犯可能性。再犯可能性 ,属于已然的社会危害性范畴 ,而主观恶性则是人身危险性的表征之一。人身危险性在罪责刑结构中 ,并不当然地起决定作用 ,只是在一定程度上起着修正的作用。我们可以以行为人没有人身危险性或者人身危险性较小为由 ,认定行为人的行为不构成犯罪 ;但不能以行为人存在着人身危险性或者人身危险性较大为由 ,认定行为人的行为构成犯罪。人身危险性不能增加刑罚量 ,只在其较小或没有的时候 ,起减小刑罚量的作用。无论在定罪中还是在量刑中 。
The basic meaning of personal dangerousness means the possibility of committing a crime again. The possibility of committing a crime again falls into the catalogue of social harmfulness, while subjective badness is one of the tokens of personal dangerousness. In the structure of crime-liability-punishment, personal dangerousness doesn't matter necessarily, rather, it only acts as a modifier to certain degrees. We could decide that an action doesn't commit a crime by reason that the actor doesn't have personal dangerousness or his personal dangerousness is relatively little; yet we couldn't decide that the behavior commits a crime by reason that the actor has personal dangerousness or his personal dangerousness is relatively big. In both the processes of conviction and sentence, there should be only a one-way-function of personal dangerousness, i.e. it couldn't increase the quantity of punishment, while it could decrease the quantity of punishment if it is relatively little or none.
