摘　　要：由立法定性加立法定量的犯罪设定模式所决定,我国现行刑法典呈现出明显的重罪重刑的特点。这使得刑法典原本设定的限缩式的犯罪圈出现不断任意扩张的趋势,同时又陷入在重刑基础上再加大刑罚投入量的恶性循环。在不彻底动摇我国刑法典中立法定性加立法定量的犯罪设定模式的前提下,就消减"重罪重刑"式的刑法典存在的上述弊端而言,需要对刑法典进行轻罪化改造。具体而言,一方面应对现行刑法典划定的犯罪圈进行轻罪化改造,即适度扩张犯罪圈,将更多的轻罪纳入刑法处罚的范围;另一方面,应摒弃传统的重刑主义观念,对现行刑法典中的法定刑作轻刑化改造,即从总体上对已有的法定刑刑种作轻刑化调整,并为部分犯罪增加轻刑的法定刑档次,从而使轻刑的适用具有法律上的根据,为这些犯罪增加轻罪的情形。Due to the qualitative and quantitative criminal setting pattern, the current penal code of China is characterized by emphasizing felonies punishable by heavy penalties. Therefore, the trend of continuous and arbitrary expansion appears in the criminal circle originally set narrowly in the penal code, and the criminal circle falls into a vicious cycle of increasing inputs of penalty amount on the basis of heavy penalties. The qualitative and quantitative criminal setting pattern in the current penal code of China should not be shaken thoroughly. Under this premise, in order to eliminate the above-mentioned disadvantages existing in the penal code, the reform of misdemeanor orientation is necessary. Specifically speaking, on the one hand, the reform of misdemeanor orientation to the current criminal circle set in the criminal code should be carried out. On the other hand, the reform of penalty lightening orientation to the statutory punishment set in the criminal code should also be carried out.
