Little has been written by lawyers about the effect of provocation on culpability for homicide in English law, yet the question of what our moral attitudes should be towards someone who kills or injures another in anger has been a source of lively debate for centuries.

Excusing Crime
ISBN: 9780198264828 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 316 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. When should someone who may have intentionally or knowingly committed criminal wrongdoing be excused? Excusing Crime examines what excusing conditions are, and why familiar excuses, such as duress, are thought to fulfil those conditions.

Excusing Crime
ISBN: 9780199225781 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 318 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

Excusing Crime examines what excusing conditions are, and why familiar excuses, such as duress, are thought to fulfill those conditions.
The 'classical' view of excuses sees them as rational defects (such as mistake) in the motive force behind an action, but contrasts them with 'denials of responsibility', such as insanity, where the rational defect in that motive force is attributable to a mental defect in the agent him- or herself. The classical view has a long heritage, and is... When should someone who may have intentionally or knowingly committed criminal wrongdoing be excused? Excusing Crime examines what excusing conditions...
