We first learn formal structures of rules, procedures, and norms of conduct through games and sports. These lessons illuminate and inform human behavior in other contexts, including the adversarial world of criminal litigation. As critiques of the legitimacy and fairness of the criminal justice system increase, the philosophy and jurisprudence of sport offer a comparative legal system to examine criminal litigation. Allegations of gamesmanship—the aggressive and strategic use of rules that violate some sense of decorum or culture yet remain within the formal rules of engagement—cut across both contexts. This Article examines what sports can teach us about gamesmanship in criminal litigation.

游戏技巧和刑事诉讼程序

我们首先通过游戏和运动学习规则、程序和行为规范的正式结构。这些课程阐明并告知了其他环境中的人类行为，包括对抗性的刑事诉讼世界。随着对刑事司法系统合法性和公平性的批评增加，体育哲学和法理学提供了一个比较法律体系来审查刑事诉讼。对游戏技巧的指控——积极和战略性地使用违反某种礼仪或文化但仍在正式参与规则范围内的规则——跨越了这两种情况。本文探讨了体育运动可以教会我们哪些刑事诉讼中的游戏技巧。
