Main academic achievements and influence:

The academic activities during my study and work in Italy are considered by the Italian side to have made a truly meaningful contribution to the first cooperation between Chinese and Italian jurists and added honor to their great motherland in the best way. 1996 After returning to China, the interactive teaching method which can fully arouse the enthusiasm of both students and teachers was pioneered in teaching, and it has been widely used in the teaching of criminal law graduate students in our school. In terms of scientific research, in addition to presiding over the key project of the Ministry of Justice "General Principles of Criminal Law Research" and participating as the main researcher in the research work of major topics such as the National Ninth Five-Year Plan large-scale social science project "Theory and Practice of International Anti-Corruption", monographs, teaching materials and reference books have been published so far, and more than 20 papers have been published publicly.

In the research of criminal law, Professor Chen insisted on combining foreign advanced theories with China's fine traditions and transforming traditional criminal law theories with dialectical materialism, and formed his own independent views on the "basic theory of criminal law" such as the general principles of criminal law, the spatial effectiveness of criminal law, the time effectiveness, the relationship between mainland law and Hong Kong law, and the essential characteristics of crime. In the master's degree thesis, it is the first time to distinguish the aspects that constitute a crime from the elements that constitute a crime. The constitutive requirements of the subject of crime are the logical starting point of crime, the object of crime is the same and inseparable, the subjective requirements of crime are the core of crime, the objective requirements of crime should only be the objective nature of crime, and the objective requirements of crime should include the objective conditions used by actors to act on the object of crime. These views have been accepted by domestic criminal law circles to varying degrees. In doctoral dissertations and related teaching materials, new ideas are systematically put forward to solve the basic theoretical problems of world criminal law, such as behavior in criminal law and causality in criminal law.
