형사입법정책의 중벌주의적 관점에 대한 비판적 이해 = Criminal Legislation and Punitivity in Korea : A Critical Perspective

국문 초록 (Abstract)

이 논문은 범죄로부터의 안전과 중벌주의 형사입법의 관련성을 검토하고 있다. 현대사회는 시민들로 하여금 안전 내지 치안의 문제에 직면하게 하는데, 중대범죄 내지 흉악범죄의 현상에 수반하는 범죄에 대한 불안감에 의해 그 문제는 더욱 심화되고 있다. 범죄에 대한 불안감은 대중으로 하여금 엄벌주의 내지 중벌주의에 대한 수요를 자극하는 경향이 있는 것으로 종종 설명되는데, 근자의 형사입법은 형벌의 효과 및 장기적인 유용성 여하를 진지하게 고려하기보다는 그와 같은 여론에 의해 주도되는 인상을 주고 있다. 이 논문은 그러한 의미에서의 패널 포퓰리즘(penal populism)이 지니고 있는 문제점을 특히 범죄학적 관점에서 살펴보고 있으며, 아울러 범죄로부터의 안전을 위한 형사입법의 방향성을 근자에 제시되고 있는 법리적 관점에 비추어 모색하고 있다.

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

This article focuses on the relationship between public insecurities about crime and punitivity in regard to criminal legislation in Korea. Modern times have left people sensitive to issues of safety and insecurity which has become more fraught with the fear of crime caused by serious criminal cases in recent years. The fear of crime is often said to be a thread of public support for harsh criminal punishment; in constructing criminal justice policy the Korean legislature seems to be driven by punitive public sentiment and opinion, regardless of the effectiveness and long-term practicality of the punishment. The article considers the problematic aspects of penal populism thriving on public perceptions of rising crime, particularly in relation to the established and proven understanding of criminology. In addition, this article describes a suggested framework for crime prevention and criminal legislation in the context of contemporary legal argumentation.
