The Western Codification of Criminal Law
Author: Aniceto Masferrer
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319719122
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 427
Book Description
This volume addresses an important historiographical gap by assessing the respective contributions of tradition and foreign influences to the 19th century codification of criminal law. More specifically, it focuses on the extent of French influence – among others – in European and American civil law jurisdictions. In this regard, the book seeks to dispel a number of myths concerning the French model’s actual influence on European and Latin American criminal codes. The impact of the Napoleonic criminal code on other jurisdictions was real, but the scope and extent of its influence were significantly less than has sometimes been claimed. The overemphasis on French influence on other civil law jurisdictions is partly due to a fundamental assumption that modern criminal codes constituted a break with the past. The question as to whether they truly broke with the past or were merely a degree of reform touches on a difficult issue, namely, the dichotomy between tradition and foreign influences in the codification of criminal law. Scholarship has unfairly ignored this important subject, an oversight that this book remedies.

Complicity in International Criminal Law
Author: Marina Aksenova
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1509900101
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 341
Book Description
This book tackles one of the most contentious aspects of international criminal law – the modes of liability. At the heart of the discussion is the quest for balance between the accused's individual contribution and the collective nature of mass offending. The principle of legality demands that there exists a well-defined link between the crime and the person charged with it. This is so even in the context of international offending, which often implies 'several degrees of separation' between the direct perpetrator and the person who authorises the atrocity. The challenge is to construct that link without jeopardising the interests of justice. This monograph provides the first comprehensive treatment of complicity within the discipline and beyond. Extensive analysis of the pertinent statutes and jurisprudence reveals gaps in interpreting accessorial liability. Simultaneously, the study of complicity becomes a test for the general methods and purposes of international criminal law. The book exposes problems with the sources of law and demonstrates the absence of clearly defined sentencing and policy rationales, which are crucial tools in structuring judicial discretion.

Comparative study on the legislation of the Web Tax between the United States of America and the European Union. -Amazon Case-
Author: Alessio Barpi
Publisher: Youcanprint
ISBN:
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 160
Book Description
L'e-commerce è la fonte principale di reddito per molti imprenditori, la vendita online permette di sfruttare al massimo l'opportunità che l'internet stesso offre, potendo raggiungere potenziali clienti ovunque. Oggi, i potenziali clienti hanno a disposizione poco tempo, complice anche il fatto che la società si è evoluta velocemente negli ultimi vent'anni, soprattutto dal punto di vista tecno-logico e sociale. Se dapprima ogni potenziale cliente doveva trovare del tempo libero per poter effettuare gli acquisti, oggi, in cinque minuti, in ufficio o nel metrò, il potenziale acquirente può effettua-re i propri acquisti grazie all'attività commerciale online. Sono passati circa 50 anni dalla nascita di Internet così come sono passati circa 46 anni dalla nascita dei moderni Computer e circa 28 anni dalla nascita degli Smartphone , per la quale trovarono terreno fertile per il loro sviluppo solo all'inizio del nuovo millennio. Il nuovo millennio non solo portò novità scientifiche e tecnologiche, ma portò anche alla nascita di un nuovo modo di vendere e di fare acquisti nel mercato digitale. Tra i pionieri del mercato digitale, oltre a eBay, vi si trova anche il principale concorrente di quest'ultima società, la Amazon, per la quale, già alla fine del secolo scorso, intravide nel web un'opportunità più che unica per poter espandersi a livello globale. Lo studio affrontato in questa Tesi di Laurea triennale, ha come scopo principale quello di poter comprendere come, nonostante l'evoluzione tecnologica e la piena globalizzazione, i vari leader europei non siano riusciti a dettare una linea univoca per poter attuare la lotta contro l'evasione fiscale effettuata dai vari colossi dell'e-commerce. Il metodo usato per affrontare questo studio è il metodo comparatistico, tra l'Ordinamento Federale Statunitense e quello ibrido Europeo.

Transitional Justice in Italy and the Crimes of Fascism and Nazism
Author: Paolo Caroli
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1000593339
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
This book presents a comprehensive analysis of the Italian experience of transitional justice examining how the crimes of Fascism and World War II have been dealt with from a comparative perspective. Applying an interdisciplinary and comparative methodology, the book offers a detailed reconstruction of the prosecution of the crimes of Fascism and the Italian Social Republic as well as crimes committed by Nazi soldiers against Italian civilians and those of the Italian army against foreign populations. It also explores the legal qualification and prosecution of the actions of the Resistance. Particular focus is given to the Togliatti Amnesty, the major turning point, through comparisons to the wider European post-WWII transitional scenario and other relevant transitional amnesties, allowing consideration of the intense debate on the legitimacy of amnesties under international law. The book evaluates the Italian experience and provides an ideal framework to assess the complexity of the interdependencies between time, historical memory and the use of criminal law. In a historical moment marked by the resurgence of racism, neo-fascism, falsifications of the past, as well as the desire to amend the faults of the past, the Italian unfinished experience of dealing with the Fascist era can help move the discussion forward. The book will be essential reading for students, researchers and academics in International Criminal Law, Transitional Justice, History, Memory Studies and Political Science.

Author: Laura Ausserladscheider Jonas
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 900447093X
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
Anchored by the normative framework, this book aims to clarify the basis for individual criminal liability for persons who finance entities that perpetrate core crimes. The objective of this monograph is to clarify the rules to enable international courts and tribunals to identify the extent to which individual criminal liability attaches to the financing of core crimes, as well as the legal basis for such liability. By clarifying the criminal liability of individual who finance entities that perpetrate core crimes, this book also seeks to clarify the mental elements of the mode of liability of aiding and abetting. This is achieved through a thorough analysis of the applicable rules in the international arena, as well as through the comparative analysis.
