沉默权是指犯罪嫌疑人、被告人在接受讯问或出庭受审时,有保持沉默而拒不回答的权利。该制度在世界上很多国家都已经确立了,而我国的一些学者也就此进行了长期的争论。 The right to silence refers to the criminal suspects, the accused have the right to remain silent and refuse to answer when they are undergoing interrogation or trial in court. This system has been established in many countries in the world, and some scholars in our country have also engaged in long-term controversies in this regard.
