古代刑事救济程序包括上诉复审、申报复审、死刑复核和录囚等内容。我国古代刑事救济程序具有一系列鲜明特征:推崇实体真实、强调国家权力、程序设置周密多元以及注重伦理等。在新的时代背景下,面对古代司法传统,我们应该兼具继承和革新的思维,摒弃消极因素,吸纳积极因素,唯有如此,方能对现行刑事诉讼救济程序的完善有所裨益。 Ancient criminal relief procedures include appeal review, review of applications, review of death penalty and recording of prisoners. China’s ancient criminal relief procedures have a series of distinctive features: respected the truth of the entity, emphasized the power of the state, set pluralistic procedures and emphasized ethics. In the new era background, in the face of the ancient judicial tradition, we should combine the thinking of inheritance and innovation, reject the negative factors and absorb the positive factors. Only in this way can we improve the current criminal procedure remedy procedure.
