摘要

这篇专题讨论会的文章指出了儿童色情法的两个戏剧性的扩展:对拥有穿着衣服但没有从事任何性活动的儿童图像的起诉,以及对拥有较小部分的艺术和非色情图像的起诉。这些起诉扩大了“儿童色情”一词的定义,远远超出了其最初的含义。更重要的是,它们表明,儿童色情法被用来惩罚那些人,并不一定是因为他们拥有的照片的性质,而是因为这些人对儿童有性吸引力的结论。如果执法部门的结论是,一个人发现一个孩子的图像是性唤起,那么这些法律可以使个人受到惩罚,即使图像是完全无害的,如果它是由别人拥有的。

The Expansion of Child Pornography Law
This Symposium essay identifies two dramatic expansions of child pornography law: prosecutions for possessing images of children who are clothed and not engaged in any sexual activity, and prosecutions for possessing smaller portions of artistic and non-pornographic images. These prosecutions have expanded the definition of the term “child pornography” well beyond its initial meaning. What is more, they signal that child pornography laws are being used to punish people not necessarily because of the nature of the picture they possess, but rather because of the conclusion that those individuals are sexually attracted to children. If law enforcement concludes that a person finds an image of a child to be sexually arousing, then these laws can subject that individual to punishment, even though the image would have been perfectly innocuous had it been possessed by someone else.
