In the current development of criminal law and justice, the concept of criminal law is a crucial issue. The concept of criminal law refers to fundamental ideas about the value, function, and principles of criminal law, which serve as guiding principles for criminal legislation and criminal adjudication. With the development of the market economy, China is undergoing a structural transformation from a political state to a dualistic society of civil society and political state. This social transformation inevitably leads to a significant shift in the concept of criminal law—from an authoritarian concept to a rule-of-law concept. This shift in the concept of criminal law will also inevitably affect China's criminal adjudication, and prosecutors also face the issue of adapting to this shift in the concept of criminal law. Therefore, the continuous advancement of the concept of criminal law is essential, and providing prosecutors with a textbook on the concept of criminal law is precisely the purpose of this book.
