Restrictive Application of Collective Legal Interest in Environmental Pollution Crime
Under the background of accelerating industrialization and rapid breakthrough of science and technology,many unpredictable environmental risks have been accumulated,and the value of order and safety has been re-examined.Therefore,from the traditional perspective of personal legal interest protection,the crime of environmental pollution has been unable to effectively respond to its own protection task.From the perspective of collective legal interests,the protection orientation of group interests and social development resources security has been demonstrated in legislative practice.However,restrictions on the protection of the collective legal interest will inevitably lead to the infringement of individual freedom,and the abstractness of the collective legal interest itself is accompanied by the potential of instrumental expansion.By limiting the application situation and fixing the anchor point of individual interests,the expansion trend of collective legal interests in application can be moderately alleviated.
