Criminal Law and Cultural Diversity
ISBN: 9780199676590 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

Many scholars, however, insist that cultural evidence is appropriate, indeed essential, for the fair operation of the criminal law. The criminal law is society's most powerful tool for regulating behaviour, and just for that reason we apply strong...
