12月26日,十三届全国人大常委会第二十四次会议表决通过刑法修正案(十一),共48条,针对低龄未成年人犯罪、知识产权侵权等问题,对刑法作出修改完善。

The amendment stipulates heavier criminal penalties for IPR infringements, raising the maximum prison term for trademark and copyright infringements from 7 years to 10 years. The amendment also lowers the minimum age of criminal responsibility to 12 for severe crimes such as murder.
刑法修正案针对侵犯知识产权的犯罪行为规定了更加严格的处罚,将商标及知识产权侵权行为的最高刑期由7年提高至10年。同时,修正案将谋杀等严重犯罪行为的刑事责任年龄降低至12岁。

单词讲解

这里的IPR是intellectual property rights的缩写形式,即“知识产权”,最近几年很火的“IP”概念是intellectual property的缩写。
IP可以是一个故事、一种形象、一件艺术品、一种流行文化,更多的是指适合二次或多次改编开发的影视文学、游戏动漫等作品。
IP剧,是指在有一定粉丝数量基础上的国产原创网络小说、游戏、动漫为题材创作改编而成的影视剧。

刑法修正案规定:

If a juvenile who has reached the age of 12, but is under 14, commits intentional homicide or inflicts an injury that leads to death, or causes severe injury to the person, reducing the person to utter disability by resorting to cruel means, he or she shall bear criminal responsibility upon attestation and approval of the Supreme People's Procuratorate (SPP).
已满12周岁不满14周岁的人,犯故意杀人、故意伤害罪,致人死亡或者以特别残忍手段致人重伤造成严重残疾,情节恶劣,经最高人民检察院核准追诉的,应当负刑事责任。

单词讲解

英语中关于“青少年犯罪”有一个固定的说法juvenile delinquency / juvenile offending。
Juvenile [dʒuːvənaɪl],指“未成年、青少年”,也可以用作形容词表示某人“孩子气的、幼稚的”,与childish、silly意思相近,比如:Don't be so juvenile(别那么幼稚了)。
Delinquency [dɪlɪŋkwənsi],指“违法行为”,尤指青少年的违法行为,实施违法行为的青少年就可以称为delinquent。

Children aged 14-16 can be held criminally liable if they commit serious crimes such as murder, rape, and drug smuggling or trafficking.
已满十四周岁不满十六周岁的人,犯故意杀人、强奸、贩卖毒品等严重罪行的,应当负刑事责任。

为了保障生物安全,刑法修正案规定了针对将基因编辑、克隆的人类胚胎植入人体或者动物体内等违法行为的处罚,相关违法人员最高刑期可达7年。

 使用兴奋剂入刑

It stipulates that anyone who lures, instigates or cheats athletes into using banned substances in either domestic or international competitions faces up to three years' imprisonment and a fine. Heavier punishments will be given to those organizing or forcing athletes into using banned substances, while knowingly offering banned substances to athletes is also a criminal offence.

 加大对性侵未成年人犯罪的惩治力度
