内容提要 我国认罪认罚从宽制度适用中存在着职权性逻辑和协商性逻辑。这两种不 同逻辑各自支配了认罪认罚从宽制度适用中的不同领域,形成了一种职权性逻辑占主导的 认罪认罚从宽模式。这种模式的形成与认罪认罚从宽制度的定性、功能以及职权主义诉讼 体制密切相关。这种模式存在着一些风险,如容易导致认罪认罚从宽制度适用的混乱、审判 机关的权力被不当限缩、检察机关的权力不当扩张以及被追诉人诉讼地位的恶化等。下一 步的改革方向是:立足于认罪认罚从宽制度的程序性制度定位,承认其合意性本质;重置职 权性逻辑和协商性逻辑,祛除合意过程和合意结果形成中的职权性逻辑,限缩合意对外的形 式和效力中的协商性逻辑,发挥审判机关的实质性审查作用;对认罪认罚从宽制度进行权利 化改造,将“以审判为中心”的改革作为推动刑事诉讼制度综合性改革的支点。

Abstract: There are two different logics in the application of the system of leniency for pleading guilty and accepting punishment in China, namely, authority logic and negotiation logic. The two different logics are applied in varying fields and the system of leniency for pleading guilty and accepting punishment is dominated by the authority logic. The formation of this mode is closely related to the positioning and functions of the leniency system as well as the authority doctrine litigation system. This mode may not only lead to a confusion of the application of the leniency system, but also generates the disadvantages of improperly curtailed power of the court and expanded powers of the prosecution, as well as a worsened litigation status of the defendant. The measures of the reform include:firstly, recognize the system of leniency for pleading guilty and accepting punishment as a procedural system and acknowledge its consensual nature; secondly, reset the authority logic and negotiation logic, remove the authority logic in the negotiation process and in the formation of content of agreement, and limit the negotiation logic in the external form and effect of agreement, and enhance the substantive review role of the court; thirdly, reform the system of leniency for pleading guilty and accepting punishment, and take the reform of trial-centered litigation as the pivot to promote the comprehensive reform of the criminal procedure system.
