刑法解释论上对伤害"胎儿"行为的探讨

若行为人没有损伤孕妇,而仅仅只是恶意伤害胎儿的话。按照刑法通说的解释不能认定为故意伤害罪。对此应从罪刑法定角度出发,立足于胎儿的独立性与非独立性的双重特点加以解释。孕妇和胎儿作为一个整体是故意伤害罪的犯罪对象,对危害结果的考察也应当着眼于对该整体的衡量,行为人用暴力迫使孕妇服食致病药物的行为就是伤害的着手,行为人的行为构成故意伤害罪。

Discuss on the Nature of Injury to Infant from Criminal Explanatory Aspect

According to the common explanation,one can't be punished for assault if he only do damage to an infant without injury to the pregnant mother . On commenting different opinions, this article argues that we should explain the criminal law considering the dualism characteristic of infant under the legality principle, take them as one unity, and judge whether any "human being" has been injured. Hence, it can be taken as assault if the accused injured the infant without injuring the pregnant mother, and the time commiting the injury is the just "beginning" of the commitment of the crime.
