摘要
我国的刑事法律援助在实践中华而不实,已引起社会的广泛关注乃至严厉的批评。国务院近期出台了《法律援助条例》,试图提高法律援助的质量,但经过分析发现,其制度夙愿也许并不能转化为现实。笔者以我国当代刑事诉讼制度对律师的依赖、法律援助对诉讼制度的影响为切入点,通过揭示刑事法律援助在整个司法改革中的重要地位,进而探讨完善法律援助的思路。同时还说明,如果整个刑事辩护执业环境不改变,即使法律援助本身完善到极致,保护被告人与被害人诉讼权利的目的也无法实现。
The criminal legal aid in China seems slowly and inadequate, having caused wide social attention and severe criticism. The State Council has recently issued “The Regulations on Legal Aid”, which makes an effort to raise the quality of the legal aid. But, after analysis we can see that what the regulations intends perhaps can not be really turned into reality. The author of the article, while dealing with the reliance on lawyers in contemporary criminal proceedings and the influence of the legal aid upon the administration of justice and though revealing the important role of criminal legal aid in the overall judicial reform, discusses how to perfect the legal aid in China.
