The "Foreign Criminal Code Translation Series" is a collection that focuses on tracking the latest developments in criminal legislation across the two major legal systems, promptly introducing the newest achievements and value concepts in global criminal legislation to the Chinese public. As the saying goes, "A stone from a foreign hill can polish the jade of one's own." In the information age, we must maximize the acquisition of information! Therefore, extensively and comprehensively absorbing the experiences of foreign criminal legislation holds significant value for "practicing the rule of law in practice and building a socialist rule of law state," improving China's criminal legislation and judiciary, and advancing the study of criminal law in China.
This Code is centered on crimes and sanctions, from the elements and offenses prescribed for crimes to the systems and choices set for sanctions, all reflecting the lenitentist philosophy of Swedish criminal law while also embodying its Nordic characteristics. Although Sweden and China differ significantly in natural geography, political and legal systems, and economic culture, the legislative techniques and value orientations demonstrated in the "Swedish Criminal Code" are undoubtedly worth studying and learning from by China's criminal law scholars and serving as a reference for China's criminal legislation.
