Foundational Texts in Modern Criminal Law presents essays in which
scholars from various countries and legal systems engage critically
with formative texts in criminal legal thought since Hobbes. It
examines the emergence of a transnational canon of criminal law by
documenting its intellectual and disciplinary history and provides
a snapshot of contemporary work on criminal law within that
historical and comparative context. Criminal law discourse has
become, and will continue to become, more international and
comparative, and in this sense global: the long-standing
parochialism of criminal law scholarship and doctrine is giving way
to a broad exploration of the foundations of modern criminal law.
The present book advances this promising scholarly and doctrinal
project by making available key texts, including several not
previously available in English translation, from the common law
and civil law traditions, accompanied by contributions from leading
representatives of both systems.
