Features: Academic collections are a primary component of a scholar's academic achievements and a concentrated reflection of their academic exploration over a certain period. Academic collections largely reflect the breadth and depth of an author's research, as well as their academic sensitivity and insight. As a result, scholars place great importance on the compilation and publication of academic collections. In the past, only academic giants were qualified to publish personal academic collections, which often served as one of the markers of their "final judgment." Naturally, this made young scholars like us step back in awe. However, in recent years, the academic community and society at large have shown greater tolerance and encouragement toward young scholars. Coupled with the burgeoning development and urgent need for expansion and prosperity in China's legal field, middle-aged and young legal scholars have increasingly published personal collections, and I am fortunate to be among them. Six years ago, when I was in my forties, China Legal Publishing House published four selected essays under the general title "Series of Criminal Law Research": (1) Research on Issues in General Criminal Law; (2) Research on Issues in Specific Criminal Law; (3) Research on Issues in Criminal Law Reform; and (4) Research on Issues in Outward-Oriented Criminal Law (volumes 1 and 2). These collections can be said to reflect, from the perspective of thematic research, the trajectory of my exploration into criminal theory and practice issues from 1996 to over a decade earlier. Among them, there are some achievements and joys, but also more shortcomings and regrets. Compiling and organizing these essays into a book allows for self-examination and reflection, as well as facilitating discussion and correction by colleagues and readers. I sincerely thank China Legal Publishing House for its strong support at the time. This collection includes 46 related essays, which primarily explore various novel, complex, and frequently occurring crimes in light of the 1997 new Criminal Code and judicial practice.
