三要素阶层式:罪行极其严重走出理论迷思的应然解释路径

罪行极其严重是刑法条文规定的死刑适用条件,但过于抽象,不利于司法实践。结合主客观相统一原则和刑罚根据论,罪行极其严重的应然解释路径是三要素阶层式,客观危害性、主观恶性和人身危险性是死刑适用条件的考量因素,三者的评判顺序应当是客观危害性第一、主观恶性第二、人身危险性第三,以此发挥功能主义和目的主义的刑法导向。

Three-factor hierarchy:legitimate interpretation of extremely serious crimes walking out of the theoretical myth

Extremely serious crime is the applicable condition of the death penalty stipulated in the provisions of the Criminal Law, but it is too abstract and is not conducive to judicial practice. Combined with the subjective and objective unification principle and penalty basis, this paper proposes that the legitimate interpretation path of extremely serious crime is a three-factor hierarchy. Objective harm, subjective malignancy, and personal danger are the considerations for the application of the death penalty. In order to give play to the criminal law orientation of functionalism and teleology, the judgement order for the three factors should be objective harm, subjective malignancy and personal danger.
