胁迫是英美法系刑法中的一个概念,具体是指行为人在受到他人死亡或者严重的身体伤害威胁的情况下被迫实施一定的犯罪行为。胁迫作为一种公认的普通法辩护事由,有其科学合理之处。分析了英美刑法中胁迫的成立条件及其存在的理论根基,并分析了其对我国刑法中胁从犯规定的借鉴意义。 Coercion is a concept in the Anglo-American legal system of criminal law, which specifically means that a perpetrator is forced to commit a certain crime under the threat of death or serious bodily injury. Coercion, as a universally accepted defense of common law, has its scientific and rational advantages. The author analyzes the conditions for the establishment of coercion in the Anglo-American criminal law and the theoretical foundation of its existence, and analyzes its reference significance to the provisions of the covenant criminal in our criminal law.
