摘　　要：《刑法修正案(九)》新设的终身监禁制度不是具体的刑种,而是无期徒刑的刑罚执行措施。终身监禁制度的设立,契合了法治反腐的政策要求,体现了宽严相济的刑事政策精神,符合死刑废止的立法趋势,实现了我国刑罚执行制度的创新。通过终身监禁制度的适用,将为最终废除贪污贿赂罪的死刑做好充分的准备,在将来立法上废除了贪污贿赂罪的死刑之后,终身监禁制度能够发挥其作为配套措施的积极作用。但是,对社会危害性并不是最严重的贪污贿赂罪规定终身监禁制度,这不仅违背了罪刑相适应原则的要求,也与刑罚目的存在着紧张关系,这种立法是对刑法理性的侵蚀。The Amendment to Criminal Law （IX） defines life imprisonment as an enforcement measure, not a kind of punishment. To set life imprisonment is to meet the requirement of anti-corruption by law, to embody the principle of combining punishment with leniency, to be in accord with the tendency of death penalty abolishment, and to realize institutional innovation in the system of punishment enforcement. Applying life imprisonment will pave the way for the abolishment of death penalty for the crime of embezzlement and bribery. In the future, after death penalty is abolished, life imprisonment will play a positive role as a supporting measure. However, the crime of embezzlement and bribery is not the most harmful crime ; therefore, setting life imprisonment for such crime violates the principle of suiting punishment for crime, and is opposite to the goal of punishment, consequently, legislation in this respect erodes rationality of criminal law.
