摘要： 量刑问题长期以来被学术及司法界所忽略。理论上，我国刑事法没有对量刑问题做细致的规定，而实践中，法院将量刑问题并入定罪的审理程序中一并考量，加上各地法院作法各异，造成量刑不透明和巨大的差异性。有人主张为了统一量刑采用电脑软件程式化量刑诸因素。本文提出量刑并非刑的量化，不应该仅仅以如何具体化刑期为中心。量刑实际反映社会对犯罪人最终评价的动态过程，理应考虑更多因素，将量刑从定罪程序中独立出来。

Abstract: Sentencing has long been neglected by both legal scholars and the judiciary．Neither the Criminal substantive nor procedure：law elaborates on this issue．In practice，the courts combine sentencing and guilty-finding．into one process．Sentencing has in fact demonstrated huge discrepancies from place to place due to variances in practices of diffrent localities and non-transparency of the process．Some propose to unifY the sentencing practice by utilizing computer programs．However，this paper points out that the sentencing is not a mere process of computing the final sentence，but rather a dynamic process of balancing all factors related to the criminal offense and of fender and making a final decision of the penalty．Therefore．the sentencing process should be separated from the guilty-finding one．
