所谓投降是指投降者在战场上基于自主意愿向敌方表示屈服,并放弃与敌方军事对抗而接受其权力管辖的一种军事行为,刑法认为投降是犯罪行为而对投降者加以惩罚。目前本罪的犯罪主体和基本罪状的法律规定均不清晰,应对其加以重新认识。投降罪的犯罪主体应限制为战场上的作战指挥人员,犯罪客观方面即罪状为投降。因此《刑法》第423条应依此进行修改。 The so-called surrender refers to the surrender on the battlefield based on its own will to the enemy expressed its surrender, and to give up the military confrontation with the enemy to accept its jurisdiction over a military act, criminal law that the surrender is a criminal act to punish the surrender. At present, the criminal subject of this crime and the legal provisions of the basic guilt are not clear and should be re-recognized. The subject of the crime of surrender should be limited to combatant commanders on the battlefield. The objective aspect of the crime is that the guilt should be surrendered. Therefore Article 423 of the Criminal Law should be amended accordingly.
