Comparative Concepts of Criminal Law is unique in the sense that it
introduces the reader to the fundamental concepts and rules of
substantive criminal law in a comparative way and not just to the
criminal law system of one specific jurisdiction. Compared with
other fields of law, like contract and property law, comparative
research into the so-called general part of criminal law is quite a
recent phenomenon within academia. The increasing 'Europeanisation'
of criminal law and policy makes such a comparative approach even
more necessary.This handbook therefore fills a legal educational
gap by exploring basic concepts of substantive criminal law in
three major European legal systems: the common law system of
England and Wales and the civil law systems of Germany and the
Netherlands. Each chapter focuses on a specific concept or doctrine
that is necessary to determine criminal liability (e.g. actus reus,
mens rea, defences, inchoate offences). Throughout the book the
authors also highlight and discuss some recent legislative and
judicial developments that broaden the scope of criminal liability
in our modern culture of control.This book is not only invaluable
for students, but also for legal practitioners who want to broaden
their knowledge of criminal law.
