摘　　要：社会转型时期社会公众基于社会安全和自身安全的考量会对刑法有一定的期待,这种客观现实和合理诉求决定了刑法修正时尊重社会舆论的正当性。而社会舆论的非理性、片面性等特点和刑法的残酷性、谦抑性等特点又共同决定了刑法修正时应当超越社会舆论的正当性。过度尊重和囿于社会舆论会导致情绪性立法,而过度超越社会舆论又可能造成对社会舆论的"傲慢与偏见"。为此,应当从切实坚守刑法发展的理性、坚持危害性原则、揭开社会舆论的面纱等方面实现刑法修正和社会舆论的合理互动。In the social transformation period, the public people hope the criminal law to be amended with the social situation change, so the amending of the criminal law should obey the public opinion. But the public opinion has the characters： irrational, onesideness and variability etc; The criminal law has the characters： cruel,modesty restrain and supplement etc. The characters of the public opinion and the criminal law determine we should transcend the public opinion when we amend the criminal law. If we obey the public opinion excessively, it will lead to the emotional legislation; If we transcend the public the opinion excessively, it will lead to the pride and prejudice to the public opinion. So when we amend the criminal law , we should follow the ration of the criminal law , follow the principle of harm weigh, discover the veil of the public opinion, only by this, can realize the good interaction between amending the criminal law and the public opinion.
