This volume presents a comparative examination of the issue of
fault in criminal law. Extant law reveals significant problems in
adoption of consistent approaches to doctrinal and theoretical
underpinnings of fault liability and culpability thresholds in
criminal law. This has been exemplified by a plethora of recent
jurisprudential authorities revealing varying degrees of confusion
and vacillation. This collection focuses on fault liability for
inculpation with contributions from leading specialists from
different jurisdictions presenting alternative perspectives. The
book addresses three specific elements within the arena of fault,
embracing an overarching synergy between them. This structure
facilitates an examination of UK provisions, with specialist
contributions on domestic law, and in contrasting these provisions
against alternative domestic jurisdictions as well as comparative
contributions addressing a particularised research grid for
content. The comparative chapters provide a wider background of how
other legal systems treat a variety of specialised issues relating
to fault elements in the context of the criminal law. With
contributions from leading experts in the field, the book will be
an invaluable resource for researchers, academics, and
practitioners working in this area.
