內容簡介
《解讀中國刑事訴訟法(英文版)》了講述了:In the eyes of the majority of westerners, china's criminal procedure is full of torture,menace, enticement and other types of inhuman methods. this is understandable because they got information about china's criminal procedure primarily from the media, the job of which is to attract the public's attention, or from scholars' articles, papers and books that focus on china's ancient legal system, or police practice at or before the "great culture revolution", and thus gives them an uninformed conception of china's criminal procedure that is limited in informal areas or ancient times. many times, our focus is distracted by inadequate, and biased information, and thus hampers us from seeking the truth.
this book is to give a concise but comprehensive introduction of chinese criminal procedure to people who do not know chinese language but are interested in learning about chinese law. in order to make the introduction easily accessible, this book discusses problems which are commonly examined and debated by western scholars in a way that western legal scholars are familiar with. since a significant amount of western criminal procedure lawsconcerns citizens' constitutional rights, this book focuses on the protections of citizens'constitutional rights in the context of criminal procedure.
In particular, this book seeks to address the following questions: in what extent does the contemporary chinese criminal procedure law protects citizens' houses, privacy and personal freedom? does the suspect have the right to remain silent when being interrogated?shall the defendant be presumed innocent when facing a criminal charge? in what extent does a defendant have the right to a fair trial? these questions will be addressed in turn in this book, providing detailed analysis and explanations for each of the issues identified.
