涉民族因素煽动言论刑法规制边界

涉民族因素煽动言论刑法规制边界不清晰的根本原因是自由与安全的冲突。厘清边界的思路是在满足社会治理的急迫需要基础上最大限度保护公民自由。具体路径是以社会治理的急迫需要为方向统领,先通过比例原则的适用进行技术管控,再通过形式要素划定犯罪圈:行为方式必须是思想外化的行为,主观意图必须具备实质恶意,言论内容必须属于不受保护的类型,危害结果必须造成了明显而立即危险或明显而顽固危险,以此达到自由与安全的平衡。

Regulation Boundary of Criminal Law on Sedition Involving Ethnic Factors

The conflict between freedom and security is the fundamental reason for unclear regulation boundary of criminal law on sedition involving ethnic factors. To clarify the boundary, it is necessary to protect civil liberties to the maximum extent on the basis of effective social governance. To meet the urgent needs of social governance, we need to first carry out technical control through applying the principle of proportion, and then delimit the crime circle through elements of form. When defining the crime circle, we need to consider whether the behavior mode is the externalization of thoughts with subjective intention full of substantial malice, whether the content of sedition is not protected by law or not, and whether there are harmful results of obvious, immediate or stubborn danger, so as to achieve the balance between freedom and security.
