Modern Control Theory and the Limits of Criminal Justice
Author: Michael R. Gottfredson
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0190069805
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 297
Book Description
Modern Control Theory and the Limits of the Criminal Justice develops and extends the theory of self control advanced in Gottfredson and Hirschi's classic work A General Theory of Crime. Since it was first published, their general theory has been among the most discussed and researched perspectives in criminology. This book critically reviews the evidence about the theory, contrasting it with alternative perspectives, and argues in favor of prevention efforts during early childhood to deal with the many problems facing the criminal justice system in America.

Unlawful Attacks in Combat Situations
Author: Héctor Olásolo
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004162003
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 313
Book Description
Death and destruction are unavoidable effects of war and combat situations. The fact that people have been killed or injured or property has been destroyed should not encourage anyone to rush to the conclusion that war crimes have been committed. On the contrary, before reaching such a conclusion, it is necessary to carefully analyze the conduct of the person causing death, injury or damage in order to ascertain whether such conduct is consistent with international humanitarian law. Technology, law and public opinion on what is acceptable has greatly evolved since World War II. The issue of civilian damage caused in combat operations has become an important topic in public opinion since Operation Desert Storm in 1991. Public pressure to limit incidental civilian damage has notably increased following the NATO aerial campaign in Kosovo in 1999 and the subsequent conflicts in Afghanistan in 2001, Iraq in 2003 and Lebanon 2006. "Unlawful Attacks in Combat Situations" focuses on the manner in which unlawful attacks launched during the conduct of hostilities have been dealt with in the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, the international treaty which, to date, deals most comprehensively with war crimes committed in international and non-international armed conflicts, and in the case law of the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia, the first international judicial body that has investigated and prosecuted crimes committed during the conduct of hostilities since World War II.

Pages : 837
Book Description
Digital violence continues to increase, especially during times of crisis. Racism, bullying, ageism, sexism, child pornography, cybercrime, and digital tracking raise critical social and digital security issues that have lasting effects. Digital violence can cause children to be dragged into crime, create social isolation for the elderly, generate inter-communal conflicts, and increase cyber warfare.

Multilevel Protection of the Principle of Legality in Criminal Law
Author: Mercedes Pérez Manzano
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319638653
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 237
Book Description
This book examines the simultaneous protection of fundamental rights by various norms and jurisdictional organs, focussing on the multilevel protection of the principle of legality in Criminal Law.Written by accredited specialists in criminal law, constitutional law, international public law, and the philosophy of law, the majority of them ex-Counsels of the Spanish Constitutional Court, it addresses various manifestations of the principle of legality: the requirement of precision, the judicial subjection to law and the prohibition of bis in idem. It does so not only from a theoretical perspective, but also through a comparative study of the jurisdiction of the European Court of Human Rights, the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, the Court of Justice of the European Union and state constitutional courts. This practical approach characterizes the book, which culminates in a detailed analysis of the relevant ECtHR Judgement Del Río Prada v. Spain on the retroactivity of unfavourable jurisprudence."Multilevel protection of the principle of legality in Criminal Law" is a useful instrument of reflection for scholars of both the principle of criminal legality and the problems that arise from the concurrency of protective jurisdictions of human rights.

The Criminal Responsibility of Senior Political and Military Leaders as Principals to International Crimes
Author: Héctor Olásolo
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1847315089
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 400
Book Description
As shown by the trials of Slobodan Milosevic, Charles Taylor and Saddam Hussein, the large-scale and systematic commission of international crimes is usually planned and set in motion by senior political and military leaders. Nevertheless, the application of traditional forms of criminal liability leads to the conclusion that they are mere accessories to such crimes. This does not reflect their central role and often results in a punishment which is inappropriately low in view of the impact of their actions and omissions. For these reasons, international criminal law has placed special emphasis on the development of concepts, such as control of the crime and joint criminal enterprise (also known as the common purpose doctrine), which aim at reflecting better the central role played by senior political and military leaders in campaigns of large scale and systematic commission of international crimes. The Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court and the case law of the ICTY and the ICTR have, in recent years, played a unique role in the achievement of this goal.

Teoría general del delito
Author: Francesco Carnelutti
Publisher: Ediciones Olejnik
ISBN: 9564072468
Category : Law
Languages : es
Pages : 215
Book Description
"En toda sociedad, grande o pequeña, acaecen hechos contrarios al bien común: homicidio, hurto, traición. Provisionalmente, podríamos dar a estos hechos el nombre de delitos. Su misma naturaleza, fundada en la oposición al bien común, demuestra que la sociedad, si quiere vivir, tiene que reaccionar contra ellos. Y, a propósito, se desarrolla, en cierta medida, una verdadera lucha, como ocurre con las enfermedades. La más antigua de las armas empleadas por el hombre en esta lucha es la pena. Pero ¿no tenemos otras que sirvan para el mismo fin? La res-puesta afirmativa debe ser considerada ya como una conquista indestructible de la ciencia; más bien de la civilización. Entre dichas armas se habla actualmente de las medidas de seguridad. Su utilidad, y por ello, su legitimidad, no pueden ser discutidas. Pero el campo de batalla es más vasto, o mejor, ilimitado; el maestro, el sacerdote, el médico, el abogado combaten al lado del juez y sus auxiliares. Marca, sin duda, un progreso en esta lucha su extensión desde la pena a los medios extrapenales. Que esta extensión pueda transformarse poco a poco en una sustitución, es un punto sobre el cual es preciso no confundir la realidad con los ideales. Si un nuevo Pasteur inventase una vacuna milagrosa contra el crimen, es seguro que desde ese momento policía, prisiones y cadenas quedarían relegadas a los museos, y el Derecho penal quedaría reducido a un capítulo de la historia jurídica. No ideamos esta hipótesis por burla ni con ironía; al contrario, lo mismo que no osaríamos excluir un milagro de la ciencia, ni siquiera en esta materia, nos sonríe y sostiene la fe en un lento, pero seguro progreso de las fuerzas morales, que constituyen la más eficaz defensa contra el delito. Más por hoy y por un largo mañana, creemos que debe admitirse todavía está verdad, quizás un poco triste: que la lucha contra tales formas de daño a la sociedad no se puede realizar sin la pena".

The Quest for Core Values in the Application of Legal Norms
Author: Khalid Ghanayim
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030789535
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 340
Book Description
Relations between societal values and legal doctrine are inevitably complex given the time lag between law and social reality, and the sociological space between legal communities involved in the development and application of the law and non-legal communities affected by it. It falls on open-ended concepts, such as proportionality, human rights, dignity, freedom, and truth, and on legal frameworks for balancing competing rights and interests, such as self-defense, command or corporate responsibility, and restrictions on freedom of expression, to negotiate chronic tensions between law and society and to bridge existing gaps. The present volume contains chapters by leading experts – former judges on constitutional courts and international courts, and some of the world’s leading criminal law, public law, and international law scholars – offering their points of view and professional analysis of legal notions and doctrines that serve as hubs for the interpretation, application, and contestation of core values, which in turn constitute building blocks of the rule of law. The shared perspective on the interplay between values and legal rules in public law, criminal law, and international law is likely to render the publication a valuable resource for both theoreticians and practitioners, law students, and seasoned legal experts working in diverse legal fields.
