摘　　要：刑法有没有自己独立的调整对象,一直是国内外刑法学界争议的焦点。我国刑法学界和法学界通说都认为刑法没有自己独立的调整对象。但是,如果刑法真的没有自己独立的调整对象的话,区别刑法和其他部门法的依据主要在于调整手段的不同的话,那么,为什么调整同样的社会关系要用不同的调整手段呢?是否完全只能靠立法者来决定什么是刑法的调整范畴?那么,这样又怎么能够防止立法者可能产生的误差呢?因此,刑法应该有自己独立的调整对象。研究刑法的调整对象只能从刑法和其他部门法之间的区别中来界定,而刑法和其他部门法的区别就在于刑法调整的是破坏法律制度的行为,即刑法的调整对象是破坏法律制度的行为。A controversy over the issue of whether criminal law has ever had an independent regulation target has long existed in the criminal law circles, both at home and abroad. In China's legal academic world, people usually believe that criminal law has no independent object to regulate. But if criminal law had no independent regulation target and the differentiation between criminal law and other branches of law only lay in regulatory means, why were a variety of means required to regulate the same social relations? And how would we prevent lawmaker's tyranny? So, criminal law should have its own matters to regulate. What criminal law regulates can only be found from the difference between criminal law and other law branches. The difference between criminal law and other branches of law lies in the fact that the criminal law regulates acts that harm the legal system, which is the very regulation target of the criminal law.
