This classic collection of essays, first published in 1968, represents H.L.A. Hart's landmark contribution to the philosophy of criminal responsibility and punishment. Unavailable for ten years, this new edition reproduces the original text, adding a new critical introduction by John Gardner, a leading contemporary criminal law theorist, discussing the continued influence of Hart's work on penal policy and the philosophy of criminal justice.
This classic collection of essays, first published in 1968, has had an enduring impact on academic and public debates about criminal responsibility and criminal punishment. Forty years on, its arguments are as powerful as ever. H.L.A. Hart offers an alternative to retributive thinking about criminal punishment that nevertheless preserves the central distinction between guilt and innocence. He also provides an account of criminal responsibility that links the distinction between guilt and innocence closely to the ideal of the rule of law, and thereby attempts to by-pass unnerving debates about free will and determinism. Always engaged with live issues of law and public policy, Hart makes difficult philosophical puzzles accessible and immediate to a wide range of readers. For this new edition, otherwise a reproduction of the original, John Gardner adds an introduction engaging critically with Hart's arguments, and explaining the continuing importance of Hart's ideas in spite of the intervening revival of retributive thinking in both academic and policy circles.Unavailable for ten years, the new edition of Punishment and Responsibility makes available again the central text in the field for a new generation of academics, students and professionals engaged in criminal justice and penal policy.

圖書標籤: 法哲學 法律 哲學 刑哲 Responsibility Hart 論文集 法哲
哈特不寫一般理論,寫具體部門法問題筆觸還是相當敏銳的。論文集以刑法中(通常)作為歸責/刑罰必要條件的mens rea為切入點,將法律懲罰拆解為“正當化目的”及“分配正義”兩組問題,分析“功利主義”及“報復主義”兩種理論如何迴應該兩組問題,並提齣一條摺中路綫:在不需要報復主義理論下依然能解釋現行(當時)刑罰中把罪犯的主觀方麵(意圖/預見/自控能力等)作為歸責必要條件的要求--哈特對報復主義的替代方案是“個人自由最大化”,“確定性要求”的(John Gardner稱之為)“法治”論證。但正如Gardner在介紹中指齣,哈特過早宣布瞭報復主義理論的死刑,使他忽視瞭可以將其作為刑罰歸責必要而非充分條件、從而把他的摺中理論糅閤得更好的機會。最後,哈特的文筆簡潔典雅,讀起來真身太暢快瞭~
評分一如既往地清晰。在Hart看來,犯罪與刑罰是目的不同的兩件事,本文集的理論難題在於刑罰。首先將刑罰的證成區分為普遍正當目的和分配兩個麵嚮,澄清混淆。以此為框架,主張分配麵嚮具有獨立次級價值(secondary value),即刑罰在強製性法律框架之中最大化個體自由,構成對普遍正當目的的限製。進而,重新解釋犯罪意圖理論和以其為基礎的責任理論:犯罪意圖並不隻在報應論中纔有意義,刑事責任也並不依賴於道德責任……越到後麵,Hart需要反復澄清和構建的責任問題越難讀。
