La correctionnalisation judiciaire, phenomene de depenalisation relative et pratique derogatoire au principe de la legalite comme aux regles de competence des juridictions, agit sur le systeme penal a un double point de vue. Instrument de politique criminelle permettant une adaptation de la loi a l'etat et a l'evolution des moeurs, a l'esprit du systeme repressif comme a l'evolution de la criminalite, elle n'en revele pas moins semble-t-il, la permanence du systeme de l'arbitraire des peines regle par le principe de la legalite criminelle. Les effets pervers qu'elle genere semblent commander qu'une reforme legalise cette pratique.
