摘要
18世纪英国国家与法律转型,而首都伦敦是这次转型的先行者。伦敦的城市化与商业化进程导致各种形式的盗窃罪猛增,中央政府一度依赖颁布“血腥法典”加以应对,将众多形式的盗窃罪列为死刑罪名。然而,如此残酷的刑事实体法在刑事司法运作中并没有发挥实际效用;治安法官们根据现实考虑,主要采用简易审判对盗窃犯做出处置。治安法官的这一制度选择,突出反映了英国在朝着“行政化”国家迈进。
Punishments on theft attested to the transformation of state and law in eighteenth century England.London was the forerunner of the process.The urbanization and commercialization of London led to a surge in all forms of theft,and the central government once relied on the enactment of bloody code which listed many forms of theft as capital crimes.However,such a cruel criminal substantive law did not play a practical role in the operation of criminal justice.The magistrates,based on practical considerations,mainly adopted summary jurisdiction to deal with theft.This institutional choice by magistrates highlights that England was being transformed into an"administrative"state.
