Features: Every scientific discipline has its specific conceptual boundaries and research objects, and criminal law is no exception. What is the concept of criminal law, and what does its research object include, are subjects of controversy in academia. The prevailing view currently is "criminal law is the science that studies criminal law and the crimes, criminal responsibilities, and penalties stipulated therein." Criminal law is the law that stipulates crimes, criminal responsibilities, and penalties, occupying a very important position in the national legal system. This book takes the "Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China" as the main research object and is based on its general principles and specific provisions. The book is divided into two parts, totaling 30 chapters. The first part is the General Principles of Criminal Law, which primarily explains the provisions of the general principles of criminal law, including the concept of criminal law, its tasks, the basic principles of criminal law, the scope of criminal law's effectiveness, the concept of crime, the concept of crime constitution, criminal responsibility, as well as the general principles, rules, and systems related to crime determination and penalty application. The second part is the Specific Crimes of Criminal Law, which primarily explains the concepts, constitutive elements, and penalties of various specific crimes stipulated in the specific provisions of the criminal law.
