Features: This book introduces the current state and existing problems of research on the theory of crime quantity both domestically and internationally. It provides a profound argument for the basic principles of crime quantity evaluation and the standards for determining crime quantity, and applies these principles and standards to the research of "evaluative combination forms" and "behavioral combination forms." The innovations of this book lie in two aspects: First, in terms of system innovation, it breaks away from traditional crime quantity classification and divides the system into two major types: "evaluative combination" and "behavioral combination." Second, in terms of viewpoint innovation, it offers a revolutionary critique of traditional theories on crime quantity. The book argues that the standard of crime quantity is not the crime constitution but the overlap of crime objects; research on statutory combination should be based on crime forms rather than statutory relationships; absorptive crimes are not punitive single crimes but substantive single crimes; both imaginary combination crimes and connected crimes are substantive multiple crimes and should be punished as multiple crimes; continuous crimes are the same type of multiple crimes, and the same type of multiple crimes should be punished through "combined crime sentencing."
