传销，作为一个具有中国特色的名词，在其诞生以来便受到了我国法律界的广泛关注。随着我国对于社会主义市场经济秩序的认识发生改变，传销行为经历了从完全合法到人人喊打的变化过程。然而，对于传销的相关规制，应当随着经济的发展进行更为科学的调整和变化。特别是对于团队计酬式传销的理解和规制，因其行为的特殊性，以及在实践之中的争议性，更加值得我们去关注和重视。在司法实践中，对团队计酬式传销行为的刑法规制也体现出扩大化的趋势。这使得许多创新型企业受到了传销犯罪的非难，并在理论上产生了诸多争议。通过经济学的分析视角，我们可以看见团队计酬商业模式一定程度的内在合理性。经济刑法更应当遵循刑法谦抑性原则，应当对团队计酬保持审慎的态度，对其作充分的社会危害性评测再加以规制。 本文分为五个部分。第一部分，从总体上阐述了传销犯罪扩大化适用的现状，以及我国当前针对传销行为的立法规制，包括行政法律规制和刑事法律规制两个方面。第二部分，通过对传销行为在概念、特征，组织、领导传销活动罪的构成要件，以及传销行为的经济学分析等方面，对传销进行全面、深入的剖析。第三部分，针对我国现行立法对传销行为的刑法规制，在理论和实践中所存在的问题，进行了深入的分析，结合近年来的典型案例，进行比较分析。第四部分，站在规范本身的缺陷和不协调，以及实务的角度，针对团队计酬式传销在司法适用中所存在的问题，特别是刺激其扩大化适用的动因，进行了多角度的讨论和分析。第五部分，提出一些针对传销犯罪扩大化适用的对策和完善建议。
