This book brings together leading scholars from the next generation
of UK criminal lawyers to celebrate the work of GR Sullivan,
Emeritus Professor at University College London, in the year of his
retirement from writing Simester and Sullivan’s Criminal Law:
Theory and Doctrine. The contributors examine many of the areas in
which GR (Bob) Sullivan’s own writing has been influential,
ranging from general doctrines such as causation and culpability,
across specific offences like theft and fraud, through defences
including necessity and insanity; before turning, finally, to
matters affecting the criminal process, notably challenges to the
doctrine of precedent in criminal law. Taken together, the essays
are a powerful tribute to Bob’s standing and influence upon
modern criminal law. At the same time, individually they make
sophisticated contributions to our understanding of some pressing
issues in contemporary criminal law. The essays illustrate the
increasing importance of theoretical argument in modern criminal
law, as well as the manner in which doctrinal debates have become
interwoven with arguments about criminalisation norms. The
resulting collection is thus a tribute also to the character of
modern academic criminal law, a character that Bob and the writers
of his generation did so much to develop.
