【Abstract】 This paper argues although legal instrumentalism is rational,absolute instrumentalism is not.Similarly,criminal law instrumentalism likewise is legitimate,but over-instrumentalism of criminal law is bound to cause a cancerous growth of the penal power of the state and the severe shrink of civil right and liberty.In legislation,over-instrumentalism of Criminal Law which is represented as overcriminalization,and in criminal justice,is symbolized by judicial discretion and power of over-extensive interpretation.The basic strategy of being vigilant against it is:stand the"criminal law as last resort"ground in legislation,while criminal justice system thoroughly implements the legality principle and strict interpretation.更多还原
