How does the state, as a public authority, relate to those under
its jurisdiction through the criminal law? Connecting the ways in
which criminal lawyers, legal theorists, public lawyers and
criminologists address questions of the criminal law's legitimacy,
contributors to this collection explore issues such as criminal
law-making and jurisdiction; the political-ethical underpinnings of
legitimate criminal law enforcement; the offence of treason; the
importance of doctrinal guidance in the application of criminal
law; the interface between tort and crime; and the purposes and
mechanisms of state punishment. Overall, the collection aims to
enhance and deepen our understanding of criminal law by conceiving
of the practices of criminal justice as explicitly and distinctly
embedded in the project of liberal self-governance.
