| The academic citation can reflect the situation of academic communication and contention. Through the statistical analysis of the citation situation of all criminal procedure law papers in Chinese Journal of Law from 1985 to 2009, it is found that in the past twenty-five years, the quantity of citation has increased, but compared to sociology and economics, it is still low. At the same time, literature overview shows significant deficiencies in its citation, indicating that the communication in Chinese criminal procedure academia still needs improvement as a whole.Secondly, over ninety percent of the citation in relevant papers is from jurisprudence, among which nearly ninety percent is from criminal procedure law. Although the total amount of references to the literatures from aboard is not low, the references to foreign language literatures are relatively few, and mainly from the developed countries and in English. This indicates that criminal procedure law scholars pay less attention to other disciplines, and their focus on other areas also has significant limitations.Finally, the relevant papers have more evidence-style citation, less discussion-style citation and rare use-style citation, which indicates that scholars only have low-level understanding of others’ research results in most circumstances. They rarely have in-depth understanding of others’ research results and have a dialogue with them, let alone the use of others’ theory. In addition, the proportion of opposition-style citation is relatively low, meanwhile, the quantity of evidence-style citation increases, which indicates the study of criminal procedure law may not be in a good development trend.In the future, the depth and scope of communication should be strengthened to create a more realistic and adequate environment for communication and contention to promote the formation of academic community and the good development of criminal procedure law study. |
