With the development of Zhongnan University of Economics and Law, the development of investigation has experienced a tortuous and brilliant course. To sum up, the early period of Zhongnan University of Political Science and Law 1948 to 1958 is the initial stage of the brewing of investigative science. 1958 to 1970 is a period of gradual development; Hubei University of Finance and Economics was stagnant from 197 1 to 1977. 1978 to 1980 is the recovery and development period; 1980 is a period of rapid development.

I. Brewing period: 1948- 1958.

team building

1948 In August, Comrade Liu Bocheng, commander of the Central Plains Military Region, officially announced the establishment of the Central Plains University in Baofeng, Henan Province, and appointed Comrade Fan Wenlan as the president and Comrade Pan Zinian as the vice president. Except for some students transferred from Henan University, the rest are from enrollment. At this time, Comrade Zhang Jia (born on July 3 1, 1926, from Henan Province) entered the First and Third Teams of Zhongyuan University to study, and then stayed in school to work. 1948 65438+In February, Chung Yuan Christian University moved to Kaifeng. 1949 moved to Wuhan from May to August.

1September, 952, Comrade Zhang Jia entered the third postgraduate class of Renmin University of China, where he studied under Professor Koldin, a famous criminal investigation expert of the former Soviet Union and the head of the crime countermeasure department of Moscow University, and became a young China scholar who systematically studied and studied the criminal investigation theory of the former Soviet Union earlier in China.

1953, when the departments of colleges and universities in China were adjusted, the School of Political Science and Law of Chung Yuan Christian University was the main body, and Hunan University, Sun Yat-sen University and Guangxi University were merged to form the Zhongnan School of Political Science and Law, which was subordinate to the Ministry of Justice. Li Bozhao is the president, and Lin Shan is the party secretary and vice president. At that time, there was no department, but there was a teaching and research section of criminal law directly under the college, which was divided into three teaching and research groups: criminal law, criminal procedure law and criminal reconnaissance (in the final title, the word "reconnaissance" was still quoted from the original text, the same below).

(2) Teaching work

1954 enrolled the first batch of undergraduate students, including Zheng Changji, Wang et al. 100. After these students took up their jobs, most of them became the backbone of the unit, which provided a solid guarantee for socialist construction and political consolidation at that time.

1956, Comrade Zhang Jia graduated from the postgraduate class of the National People's Congress and returned to school. For the first time, he offered a judicial expertise course for 54-level undergraduates. According to the criminal countermeasure system of the former Soviet Union, combined with the situation at that time and his own experience, he wrote a speech and sent it to the students. The system is divided into three parts: technology, measures and methods, with a class time of * * 120, which spans two semesters. At the same time, Li Daoquan (forensic doctor of Hubei Provincial Public Security Department) and Huang (later professor of forensic medicine of Tongji Medical University) were invited to teach forensic medicine, and Comrade Fan was the experimenter.

Second, the gradual development period: 1958- 1970.

team building

From 65438 to 0958, Hubei Province accepted Zhongnan College of Finance and Economics and Zhongnan College of Politics and Law, which were handed over by the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Justice, and merged with Zhongnan Cadre College of Politics and Law and the Law Department of Wuhan University to form a provincial Hubei University. The principal is Meng, vice governor of Hubei Province, Zhu Haotian, secretary of the Party Committee, and the vice president in charge of this work.

At that time, the first major department was the Law Department, which consisted of the Judicial Appraisal Department and the Judicial Appraisal and Criminal Procedure Department. The lecturers are Zhang Jia,, (graduated from Beijing University of Political Science and Law, majoring in criminal procedure from former Soviet expert Chugunov), Hong Hanbo (transferred from the law department of Wuhan University, studied under former Soviet criminal investigation expert Kolkin for one year), Huang (graduated from China Renmin University with a bachelor's degree in law) and Xu 6.

(2) Teaching work

The law department * * * had more than 0/500 students/kloc, which was a large-scale and influential law department in China at that time. Judicial expertise teaching and research group undertakes the teaching tasks of investigative science, forensic medicine and other courses. First of all, in 1958, a course of forensic science was opened for 55-level undergraduates. At that time, the teaching and research group drew lessons from the curriculum system of the former Soviet Union, combined with the national judicial practice experience and its own research results, and organized the teachers in the teaching and research section to compile the textbook of Judicial Appraisal as a bound volume. The system is still divided into three parts: technology, measures and methods, but many contents are closer to the judicial practice at that time and more instructive. At that time, we had a good relationship with the practice department. When public security organs encounter difficult cases, they often ask Comrade Zhang Jia and other teachers and students to help them analyze and study. It is under this combination that many difficult cases have been solved. Our students often practice in the internship department. From 65438 to 0958, Comrade Zhang Jia went deep into the actual departments, personally consulted the files and files, overcame many difficulties, and edited the Collection of Criminal Cases, with more than 200,000 words, including murder, theft, robbery, arson and rape. , and distributed to students in the form of confidential information, each with one copy, which greatly promoted the investigation teaching.

1959 On the basis of co-editing and combining with teaching practice, teachers were organized to compile five volumes: Reconnaissance, Field Investigation, Trace Inspection, Document Inspection and Criminal Photography. At this time, the content and system are more perfect, and the lectures are more targeted, which lays a solid theoretical foundation for students to take up their jobs in the future.

1960, according to the political situation at that time, in order to strengthen the education of guiding ideology, the bound volume was rewritten, which was divided into five parts: basic theory of public security, development history, technology, measures and methods, which greatly enriched and improved the basic theory, system and content and promoted the investigation and research at that time. This volume has been used until 1970. In terms of basic principles, it emphasizes the principles of the party's leadership, the mass line, the combination of specialized agencies and the mass line, and the combination of daily work and the campaign to solve crimes.

At this time, the laboratory construction has also developed by leaps and bounds, not only equipped with a variety of long and short guns, but also a variety of trace material evidence showrooms, which can do a variety of experiments such as material evidence, traces and documentary evidence.

Stagnation period:1970 ――1977.

In the chilling atmosphere of the "Cultural Revolution", the garden of higher education was in ruins. Hubei University was forced to cancel and downsized to Hubei Institute of Finance and Economics, which was the only remaining "one and a half" among the original 18 financial colleges in China at that time. The school has a Department of Political Science and Law (formed by the merger of the Department of Political Science and the Department of Law of Central South University of Political Science and Law), and the backbone teachers still stick to their teaching posts. Under extremely difficult circumstances, Comrade Zhang Jia still gave a field trip to the students of the judicial cadre training class in 1973, and compiled a single book of Field Trip with more than 80,000 words in 1974, which was used as a teaching material for the cadre training class and printed thousands of copies. However, due to the overall social situation at that time, investigation teaching and scientific research could not be carried out normally and were in a stagnant stage.

Fourth, the recovery period: 1978- 1980.

team building

1978 1 month, the school was renamed Hubei university of finance and economics, and resumed four-year undergraduate education and postgraduate education, becoming one of the earliest institutions of higher learning to resume undergraduate and postgraduate enrollment after the cultural revolution. The following year 1 month, the school leadership system changed and was led by the Ministry of Finance. Since then, the school has entered a period of rapid development.

At that time, a criminal investigation teaching and research section was set up in the law department, with Comrade Zhang Jia as the director of the teaching and research section, and the teaching staff was greatly enriched. 1978, Comrade Wang Wancheng was transferred as a forensic teacher, Comrade Han Shaokui and Comrade Li Yingcun were transferred to teach in succession in 19865438, and Comrade Wang Yanling and Liu Shuyi were transferred as physical evidence technology teachers in 1988.

(2) Teaching work

First of all, a public security business course was opened for 78-level undergraduates. Ding Huanchun, JiaHe Zhang, compiled his own textbook, entitled "Public Security Business Lecture". The course has a total of 240 hours and is taught in two semesters. Comrade Zhang Jia participated in the compilation of 1982 Criminal Investigation textbook compiled by the Ministry of Justice, which is the first investigation textbook compiled by the Ministry of Justice since the resumption of the college entrance examination, and has great influence in the whole country.

Verb (abbreviation of verb) has developed rapidly: 1980 to the present.

In the late 1980s, the discipline of investigation developed and became the focus of the discipline construction of public security. With the joint efforts of all teachers, we have strengthened our work in three aspects: First, team building. Through further study, a group of potential teaching and scientific research backbones have been trained. In the meantime, under the leadership of Zhang Jia, Fan, Yang and Li Jianxun, the strength of the Criminal Investigation Teaching and Research Section has been growing, and the number of teachers once reached 13: Zhang Jia,,, Wang Wancheng, Fan, Li Jianxun, Kong Ming, Li Jinwen, Zhang Yuanhuang and Zhu Jingping. The second is infrastructure construction. Gradually increase the capital and manpower input of the investigation laboratory, and improve the technical level and scientific and technological content of the laboratory; The third is the construction of teaching materials. During the period of 1980- 198 1, Mr. Zhang Jia was responsible for the compilation of the chapter "on-the-spot investigation" in Criminal Investigation published by Law Press 1982. This authoritative textbook, edited by Professor Zhou Yingde, is the first national college criminal investigation textbook published in New China, and has been included in the compilation plan of college liberal arts textbooks organized by the State Education Commission. This textbook brought together the best investigative experts in China at that time, constructed the basic system and framework of contemporary investigative science in China, represented the highest research level of investigative science at that time, and had a wide and lasting influence on the legal and investigative circles in China. 1990 In May, a new edition of Criminal Investigation, edited by Mr. Criminal Investigation Department and edited by Li Jianxun and Zhang Wei, was published by China University of Political Science and Law Press. This book is the first investigative textbook independently compiled by Zhongnan University of Political Science and Law after the reform and opening up. On the one hand, it absorbs and inherits the theoretical research results of the predecessors of the criminal investigation department, on the other hand, it innovates in the theoretical system and content, which lays the foundation for the development of investigation in the new period.

1July, 1995, with the continuous expansion of the enrollment scale of public security administrative law majors, Zhongnan University of Political Science and Law decided to separate the criminal investigation teaching and research section and the administrative law teaching and research section from the law department and set up the public security administrative law department. Professor Fang is the head of the department, and Li Jianxun (also the director of the Criminal Investigation Teaching and Research Section), Zhang, Yang and Guan Baoying have successively served as deputy directors. The development momentum of investigation discipline is stronger.

In the construction of teaching materials, Li Jianxun undertook the task of compiling two chapters, namely "On-the-spot investigation" and "Investigation of explosion cases" of the Law Textbook for Colleges and Universities edited by the editorial department of the Law Textbook of the Ministry of Justice. This textbook was published by Law Publishing House 1996, which has exerted great influence on the legal and investigation circles in China, and also shows that we have always maintained certain theoretical advantages in the field of on-site investigation. As for the monograph, Wang Junping published "Judicial Access Technology" in June 1997, which improved the theoretical research level of judicial access. After studying in the Institute of Criminal Law and Criminology of the University of Paris X, Zhang published "Basic Problems of Modern Criminology" in June 1998, and made in-depth research on the basic theoretical problems of criminology in the form of monographs, making contributions to deepening the theoretical research on the causes of crime in China.

1August, 1999, the major of administrative law returned to the former law department of Central South University of Political Science and Law, and the public security department was formally established. With Yang as the director and Li Jianxun as the deputy director, the discipline of investigation has ushered in a new historical development opportunity.

In May 2000, Zhongnan University of Political Science and Law merged with Zhongnan University of Finance and Economics to form Zhongnan University of Political Science and Law. The former Public Security Department of Zhongnan University of Political Science and Law was upgraded to the Public Security College of Zhongnan University of Economics and Law, becoming the first public security college directly under the Ministry of Education in China. President Yang Ren, Zhang as Party Secretary and Vice President, Huang Shuchun and Wang Ping as Deputy Secretaries of the Party Committee. The establishment of public security college puts forward higher requirements for teachers. After two years of development, among the existing teachers in the Criminal Investigation Teaching and Research Section, the proportion of teachers with master's degree or above has reached 87%, and the proportion of teachers with associate professors and professors has reached 57%. The structure of the teaching staff is reasonable and scientific, forming an echelon of discipline construction. Relying on the teaching staff, in August 2002, the discipline of criminal law (postgraduate) was approved to be established. The director of the tutor group of this discipline is Zhang, and the members are Yang and Yang. In June 2003, the first enrollment. In order to further strengthen the technical strength of the investigation discipline, the Institute established the Material Evidence Technology Teaching and Research Section in July 2002. At the same time, colleges and universities continue to increase the investment of manpower, material resources and funds in criminal investigation laboratory, which is an important development force of investigation. After long-term efforts, the Ministry of Justice approved the establishment of the first comprehensive judicial authentication institution in Central South China in March 2003-the Judicial Authentication Center of Zhongnan University of Economics and Law, which is affiliated to the Public Security College, with Zhang as the director and Li and Wei Liu as the deputy directors.

In order to promote academic exchanges at home and abroad in the field of investigation and improve academic popularity, in May 2000, the Public Security College organized a "National Symposium on Public Security Theory and Public Security Education", and invited 48 famous scholars, theorists and educators in the field of public security in China to attend the conference for a four-day academic discussion. Then, on October 24-26, 2002/kloc-0, the "International Symposium on Police Science" hosted by Zhongnan University of Economics and Law, undertaken by Public Security College and funded by Ford Foundation was held. More than 70 experts and scholars from Belarus, the United States, Britain, Chinese mainland, Hong Kong and Macao were invited to have a heated discussion on several basic theories and frontier issues of investigation discipline. These two conferences provided an excellent platform for academic exchanges at home and abroad of China's investigation discipline, which had a wide influence in the whole country and was well received by the academic circles. In scientific research, after the publication of Basic Problems of Modern Criminology, Zhang published the book Principles of Criminology in 200 1 year, which systematically and comprehensively sorted out and studied the basic theoretical problems of criminology. From June 5, 2002 to1October 38, 2002, "Investigation" edited by Yang was published. This textbook summarizes the research results of investigation since China's reform and opening up, organically unifies the basic theory, applied theory and practical experience of investigation, emphasizes the innovation of style and content, and promotes the development of investigation discipline. Later, Yang's Research on the Frontier of Investigation, Theory and Applied Technology of Witness Investigation and Investigation of Securities Fraud Crime are important symbols of the continuous development of investigation discipline.
