"Escape" (Prison Break) is starting in August 2005 in the United States hit drama TV series, is currently being broadcast "escape" the second quarter. The drama of young netizens in China, Kandie also the gentlemen in the group, the popular level and even then, "Huanzhugege", "Jang Geum" in the same breath. Lincoln characters - Barros was considered guilty of murder was put into Fox River prison death row, and their younger brother Michael - Schofield firmly believe that their brother is innocent, because the death penalty on the forthcoming implementation of approximation, with no other choice Under the circumstances, he designed a complete escape plan that also rescued his brother and their innocence.
I note that in the opera to the United States involved in the many details of the death penalty system, many of which are worth learning and drawing upon:
Although the United States retained the death penalty, but the real number was the implementation of the death penalty is extremely rare. That is, those facing the death penalty drama hero is Abraham Lincoln, Illinois, since 1976 the first 13 death-row inmates, which in the past 30 years, the average every two years less than the implementation of the death penalty case. Lincoln in the same prison with other inmates, some prisoners have murder, but did not apply the death penalty, the applicable sentence is life imprisonment, a good performance, the future may also released on parole from prison. Clearly, even in the United States retain the death penalty, its application of the death penalty is strictly limited. Just as Fox River prison warden said: "No matter whether the death penalty justice, but the killing of a person's life is not worth celebrating, today (execution) can not be the joyful atmosphere."
"Escape", we can deeply feel that the idea of procedural justice in the United States enjoys popular support. Although the death penalty will immediately be implemented within 24 hours, but Lincoln's lawyers are still running for, because the enjoyment of their right to appeal if the new evidence, the judge ordered the delay to the implementation of the death penalty, which is why Lincoln has drama Get the electric chair, the governor had ordered the execution of the death penalty that moment, the judge can still order the halt of the reasons for the death penalty. Moreover, in the United States, the governor of the death penalty have the right to amnesty, if the governor personally feel doubt on the case, can be directly ordered to stop the implementation of the death penalty.
In this drama, a detail given me a deep impression, felt the powerful forces of the United States procedures, that is, if those facing the death penalty get the electric chair, but because of short circuit, and other reasons, not the end of their death, the case, the death penalty The implementation of the need to re-establish procedures, the need for new capital punishment and a new death notices, which will lead to delays in the implementation of the death penalty would be three weeks. Even in death several hours before suddenly found the already well-circuit failure, repair work must also be re-submitted in accordance with established procedures for, but not directly overhaul. Therefore, the Fox River prison warden for the governor of Lincoln may be an amnesty, lawyers are also running it and wish them good luck, the reporter asked: "Does this indicate that you believe he is innocent» "The governor will say:" This shows that, I believe that process! "
It seems that these people are hard to understand then that is necessary but not superfluous, it is the essence of the concept of procedural justice lie. Qiu Xinghua of the current uproar killings, their families and lawyers of the spirit of Qiu Xinghua judicial identification, this is a legitimate and reasonable procedural requirements, but still not back to the relevant departments, not only this, people shout Shasheng constant fear of their drilling the legal loopholes, Ho also » This reflects the Chinese concept of nothingness justice process, in which the concept of nothingness under the guidance of the families of the legitimate requirements of Qiu Xinghua was only in the non-rational annihilation of the public anger.
From "escape" We have also learned that even those facing the death penalty, his personality, human rights continue to be the greatest degree of protection. Such as those facing the death penalty in the Lincoln meeting with his son, guards will take into account the feelings and his removal Xingju; Lincoln in the forthcoming implementation of the death penalty the day before because of his food poisoning, doctors still have been carefully nursing; execution of the death penalty in the timing The night, to maximize the public to avoid the psychological impact of those facing the death penalty in the implementation of the death penalty, even to the executives he had prepared diapers, taking into account their dead in that moment, the urine will incontinence. So Zhuban, illustrates the American society of humanistic care foundation.

The double play in transition: lawyers Digest published to commemorate the fifth anniversary of 18
As we know, and now the matter is not often we do not know - the so-called "know" elements is its irony strike »» At the same time, and are often not Pamo Ren to tell the truth, but fear not speak out the truth People listen! Why » The reason is that from what we have nothing letter to the letter, tired, numb, especially after the economy has become a superstition, because everybody has a lot of Narcotic approach, for example, such as network rave, such as entertainment and consumption, Mr. Xu Bi, as scholars have pointed out that the research and today the Chinese public rampant cynicism, as we all know: We have to get a dead end. By Mr. Deng Zhenglai said, is called "being forced to erase the memory." If we have lost memory, in addition to tired and numb, but also Why » This may also simply to historical reasons and consequences, from the level of reality to find reasons, as in Ren Zhongyi old man had said: "Development is the last word, not hardware development makes sense." Because we have very clear to see that this Kind of "hard-development" of the seriousness of the consequences of the. Right from the point of view, as noted by Professor Li Shuguang, we must go through the market economy evolved in three stages: from malformation of the market economy (the Government's participation in the game) to the chaos of the market economy (with the entrepreneurs of the Group of the game) again To the rule of law, market economy (virtuous circle). This, in my view, is the real essence of the transformation of China.
The question is, why are we so easy to superstition, either political or superstition is the economic superstition » Burglary think that the key may lie, we never lack of independent intellectuals class. If the individual is the spirit of independent intellectuals, I am afraid not be difficult if the entire class of intellectuals is completely independent, in our China is a very serious problem, serious now want to go on cynicism or else the only self-narcotic continue. Therefore, to the current stalemate is the case, said the case, some even repeat their own do not believe even Daha Qian said. The fundamental crux of the problem is the lack of public - whether the monopoly was unable to provide public goods now at least the spirit of support, or the current spirit of self-support be out of the question. Intellectuals how to play » In present China has become particularly severe and difficult. For example, even the academic community is the topic for such a large group of intellectuals has been the consensus, there has also been completely open to the public space of our own problems, or even no longer a "new youth" as the first problem can be effective . If "their wisdom has been opened, the official did not Kai", then how do » Therefore, in my view, "lawyer Digest" the mission than the "New Youth" more difficult times, but also more peaceful, and this requires a more resilient and pragmatic on the shoulder, shoulder our "era of the gate" . Mr. Sun Guodong is owned by such a tenacity and loyalty of the shoulders. Hebei has always been more Kangkaibeige of disabilities, and now the Chinese University of Political Science and Youcai, whether in person or lawyers, is pushing waves on the Yangtze River before the waves. Needless to say, is the immediate needs of these two intellectuals to act as the backbone of China's transformation. Lu Xun, Hu Shi, Cai Yuanpei, Chen Duxiu, and other masters of the May 4th spirit will no doubt always inspired us to delay this modern unconscious of the nation, but after all, is completely different from the times: First of all, we have not the so-called China The. Secondly, even if it is authoritarian China, but also to the right, after all, China began the difficult transition. Despite the (whatever) left over from the traditional Chinese still many problems - and that the historical transformation of the arduous nature, complexity and long-term, any short-term behavior may have little. It is in this sense, burglary think that in order to understand more Guo-dong, close to believe, Mr. Chen Yinke advocated the "independence of spirit, freedom of thought" and "Bar Digest" edit ideas and "upgrade lawyers realm of life, raise the level of business lawyers "Running purposes.
To be blunt, our lawyers a long way to go, our efforts are intellectuals long way from its repair Xi. Whether the so-called safeguard the rights of vulnerable groups or maintaining the so-called social justice, non-lawyer groups , if we really want China to the authoritarian right from the restructuring of China. In fact, the lawyers far more than just protect vulnerable groups, but also to safeguard any possible violation of individual interests, that is, in this specific case all the immediate and effective efforts to debate the process, we hasten to the public and public space Infancy, thus effectively promote (and deformity of the chaos to the rule of law) market economy in transition. Only in the rule of law, market economy there, only enough to protect people's economic freedom. Only in the real economic freedom there can be found in our own through a variety of consultation and compromise among the (local) of natural law, it may also produce local civil society, our public areas can there be true birth of the foundation. At the same time, the efforts of knowledge which will highlight the importance of its immense: not only in the face of China's specific situation made all the problems of handling and more of our local community to construct a modern value of care, to obtain " Good "and" fairness "of Chinese law / picture of the legal system, in particular, it is important to effectively re-build our lives.
It seems to me, "lawyer Digest" is the academic consultant of China today one of the people in the Hero: If a moment can be omitted from Jiang Ping, Zhang Sizhi, and other non-old man, then, Professor Deng Zhenglai construction is the "ideal picture of Chinese law" Not only right time, but the strength of an unprecedented, but also played the "main body of China," this is not a big change in the high Marche; Professor He Weifang strongly advocated by the specific evolution of the system to the rule of law, life-giving spring breeze, Run A silent, China is well-deserved present constitutional order to achieve the principle of loyalty "vigil people." Of course, including Jiang Ping, Zhang Sizhi, and so on, they are only a few outstanding representatives only. If it must be opened to list the names of outstanding intellectuals are bound to be out very long, long string, and many of them already appear in the name of "Bar Digest" on the publications. This is also, "lawyer Digest" the editorial concept can be implemented earnestly, but not as we are familiar, such as the "double hundred", as only found in slogans. Of course, more lawyers for a group of outstanding people in, such as Pu Zhiqiang, only Wang Liang, Xu Zhiyong, Teng Biao, etc. (If it must be open to the list, including those of the intellectuals, political and legal, but also like to open a very long A long string), despite their efforts difficult it is very difficult, and may even temporarily little effect, but that the burglary, they promote modern Chinese lawyers in the process of building a modern constitutional order and the principle of the road, contribute to the work, indeed . If it is said that "raising lawyers realm of life, raise the level of business lawyers" Obviously, many more should be charged on a non-personal reward truly rewrite the history of the Law Society of representatives of public welfare undertakings - Pu Zhiqiang, Xu Zhiyong, QIN Bing, and so on. Rather, they are lawyers and the models.
As the saying goes: saffron green leaves to support. When the green leaves Man Shu, from a "lawyer Digest" will be particularly natural safflower Yaorao. I thought, Guodong, the "independence of spirit, freedom of thought" concept is totally different from the editorial "New Youth" era. If the "New Youth" as the only side of the Enlightenment, only remain in "critical" and "Down with" and "Mr." and "Mr." on the call, then, "lawyer Digest" the play is difficult in the complex More: we can clearly see that its restructuring China's specific double play in the process - it is necessary to truly effective deconstruction of the same structural Gengu we exist, as noted by Professor Chen Zhiwu: "The reason why so many The traditional society commended the collective culture is not a choice at all. Collectivism only respected each culture so that people forget themselves and to those who personified the stealth financial contracts to achieve the basis for the development of well-developed financial varieties, May be down with 'home-shop' of a better way. "After all, still have to fight for access to relevant systems for the basis of work and play, and also for academic freedom and institutional basis of efforts, and play. In this dual role of the fifth anniversary of the Journal has in the course of history, Guodong editor-in-chief is clearly not alone, even though he To this end, "not the end-Yi Dai Hui gradually, to the Iraqi people Consumers in the haggard," from time to time for the Running of the Storm, for the office environment difficult, and many can imagine the personal commitment of the Bible and difficult, he has to remain, "the public, he found hundreds of"……
Guodong target what is it » Certainly not by Mr. Wang Guowei 1,559 of that realm, but we are living in this world in the most valuable and reasonable rules of order. To achieve it, is not entirely clear to others, even to our own, of course, include our next generation. In that case, including all add to this double role of the people, what is there reason to regret it »
