Recent positive trends in criminal legislation have led to an increase in minor offenses and lighter punishments,while reducing serious offenses and severe punishments. However,there's a lingering tendency to-wards harsh penalties for minor crimes in China,including over-reliance on short-term imprisonment,ineffec-tive probation,insufficient use of fines,and low rates of probation. To address these issues,the penalty system for minor offenses should adopt a lenient approach with strict exceptions,focusing on utility over retribution,re-forming short-term imprisonment to reduce reliance on it,thereby enhancing the social effectiveness of minor offense management.
