本文件论述了在过去20多年里,联合王国和其他地方将刑事定罪作为管制与工作有关的死亡的工具的运动。这可被视为反映了对相关法律的不满,尽管最好从象征性的角度将其理解为对监管法的工具性和沟通愿望之间脱节的反应。本文使用从公众访谈中收集的经验数据来探讨这种犯罪行为可能起到的作用。调查结果表明,监管法的失败引发了将刑事化作为一种手段来规范与工作相关的安全事件的愿望。
This paper addresses the movement towards criminalization as a tool for the regulation of work-related deaths in the United Kingdom and elsewhere in the last 20 years. This can be seen as reflecting dissatisfaction with the relevant law, although it is best understood in symbolic terms as a response to a disjunction between the instrumental nature and communicative aspirations of regulatory law. This paper uses empirical data gathered from interviews with members of the public to explore the role that such an offence might play. The findings demonstrate that the failures of regulatory law give rise to a desire for criminalization as a means of framing work-related safety events in normative terms.
