The Third Plenary Session of the 18th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China made a strategic decision to promote the construction of the rule of law in China.It combines the rule of law with prosperity,democracy,civilization,and harmony as the core elements of building the Chinese Dream,making the modernization of the rule of law an important booster of Chinese-style modernization.However,the construction of the criminal rule of law is the shortcoming of the construction of the rule of law in our country,and criminal defense is also the shortcoming of the construction of the criminal rule of law.To promote Chinese-style modernization with the modernization of the rule of law,it is indispensable to realize the modernization of criminal defense.An examination of the development history of criminal litigation over the past years since the founding of the People's Republic of China shows that the relationship between prosecution and defense in our country has mainly gone through four stages:disorder,imbalance,confrontation,as well as confrontation and cooperation.Criminal proceedings exhibit different characteristics at different stages.The influence of the defendant-defense relationship on the criminal defense activities also takes on different forms and faces different challenges.But no matter what form it is externalized into,the core of criminal defense ultimately depends on the relationship between prosecution,defense and trial,especially the relationship between prosecution and defense.The eight theories of criminal defense starts from the theoretical guidance of the modernization of the rule of law in our country,focuses on the explicit issues of criminal defense,and cuts into the core of the relationship between prosecution and defense,in order to promote the improvement of the criminal defense system through the improvement of criminal defense theory,and then promote the realization of the modernization of the rule of law.
