Opis

This unique work sheds much new light on the old problem of conceptualization and classification within criminal law. Paul H. Robinson argues that the current operational structure of criminal law fails to fully account for its different functions, and proceeds to suggest new sample codes of criminal conduct and adjudication in a study that will be seen as an incisive departure from today's pragmatic approach. The book is an important and well-rounded exploration of the structure of criminal law systems that will appeal to both teachers of law and policy-makers around the globe.
