2023年法律英语基础词汇MalaProhibita.docx

法律英语根底词汇：Mala Prohibita Mala Prohibita法律所禁止的、非法的 Those things which are prohibited by law， and therefore unlawful. A distinction was formerly made in respect of contracts， between mala prohibita and mala in se； but that distinction has been exploded， and， it is now established that when the provisions of an act of the legislature have for their object the protection of the public， it makes no difference with respect to contracts， whether the thing be prohibited absolutely or under a penalty. 【注】 Mala in se（本身错误的）指本质上违犯社会伦理道德的违法行为，这种行为因损害了公共秩序、仁慈风俗而为一般社会正义所不容。Mala prohibia（法律禁止的）那么是本质上并不违犯伦理道德，而是由于维护行政治理秩序的需要而为法律所禁止的行为。 在刑事犯罪中，Mala in se寓恶于已，不待法律之特别规定即可认为是犯罪；mala prohibita那么寓恶于禁，必须由法律之专门规定才能成立犯罪。 显然，mala in se寓居的范围早已超出了实定法的界限。
