Abstract

Human beings are the basis for the formulation and implementation of all laws and regulations, and human rights are fundamental to the survival and development of human beings. The concept is put forward to emphasize the basic rights that human beings should enjoy in the social environment, and to reflect the fairness of the survival between human beings. Along with the establishment and development of human rights law, it has been used as a basic guideline to achieve the comprehensive optimization of the law. Nowadays, China has signed and acceded to a series of international human rights conventions, and international human rights law, represented by the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR), has provided important norms in the field of international human rights, reflecting the cognizance of basic human rights by all countries in the world. Under the influence of international human rights law, the reform of China’s criminal law field has been an inevitable trend. By analyzing the development of international human rights law, the relationship between international human rights law and China’s criminal justice, the article focuses on the impact of international human rights law on China’s criminal law reform from the level of principles and systems for reference.
