因病态性赌博所增加之社会成本已逐渐成为世界上*紧迫的公共政策挑战之一,有很多专家或学者从医学或社会学的角度详细论述了这一问题。然而,从法律的角度对这一问题的认识还处于起步阶段。基于此背景,本书从法律的视角研究了病态性赌博所衍生之法律问题,主要内容包括:病态性赌博的概念和特征;解释自我隔离制度或自我禁入赌场制度的法律考虑;从民法角度来探讨博彩业经营者是否对病态赌徒承担相应的谨慎义务;以刑法视角来诠释病态性赌博所衍生之问题;阐述负责任博彩的相关法律制度架构及博彩业经营者的法律责任。

Preface
There remain little doubts that the major trends regarding gambling over the past several years have been towards its increased acceptance, legitimization, and legalization in various forms in different parts of the world. The recurring underlying reason for casino legalization over the past years might be economic and tourism development. However, gambling is not always an economic panacea. There is also a variety of social problems arising from gambling related activities with several legal implications. Those social costs of gambling can include an increase in crime, prostitution, and alcohol and drug use in the gaming area. One of the most commonly cited reasons for the society objections to the introduction of casino gambling appears to be the fear of the advent of pathological compulsive gambling which may be a serious problem if not effectively dealt with. Despite the fact that pathological gambling is recognized as a medical disorder in USA, it has been increasingly regarded by the governments and the gaming industry as an issue of legitimate concern for the public. It has gradually become one of the most urgent public policy challenges in the world. There are a large number of publications which deal in detail with this issue from the medical and sociological angles. However, knowledge of this problem from the perspective of regulations and law is still in its infancy. In this context, it will be of much theoretical and practical significance to find out how to understand this issue correctly and find a rational legal system to regulate it. This book tries to deal with many important legal issues with regard to one of the most important problems which are highly contentious pathological gambling, in the hope of giving certain inspiration to help people confronted with this problem from law and regulations point of view throughout the world. At the same time, the book serves as a reference to sound development ofMacaus gambling industry. The investigation attempts to touch upon the latest developments of some western jurisdictions addressing these legal issues regarding pathological gambling by emphasizing the current problems encountered by the judges and the courts in these jurisdictions and it is expected to provide some valuable suggestions for the Macau SAR Government in exploring and configuring effective regulations on the foreseeable questions induced from pathological gambling.
The book is organized as follows. Besides introduction and conclusions, this book consists of five chapters. Chapter I deals with a general introduction to gambling and pathological gambling. Chapter II analyzes legal considerations of Self-Exclusion program. Chapter III discusses an important question as to whether or not gaming operators owe a duty of care to pathological gamblers. Chapter IV focuses on the relationship between pathological gambling disorder and criminal law. Chapter V explains responsible gambling program.
This book has been specially prepared as a reference guide to provide information helpful to legislators, judicial staff and related academic researchers. At the same time, I hope that this book full of experimental writing can achieve the desired effect of inspiring and encouraging more deep research findings to emerge.
