The Oxford Handbook of Criminal Law reflects the continued
transformation of criminal law into a global discipline, providing
scholars with a comprehensive international resource, a common
point of entry into cutting edge contemporary research and a
snapshot of the state and scope of the field. To this end, the
Handbook takes a broad approach to its subject matter,
disciplinarily, geographically, and systematically. Its
contributors include current and future research leaders
representing a variety of legal systems, methodologies, areas of
expertise, and research agendas. The Handbook is divided into four
parts: Approaches & Methods (I), Systems & Methods (II),
Aspects & Issues (III), and Contexts & Comparisons (IV).
Part I includes essays exploring various methodological approaches
to criminal law (such as criminology, feminist studies, and
history). Part II provides an overview of systems or models of
criminal law, laying the foundation for further inquiry into
specific conceptions of criminal law as well as for comparative
analysis (such as Islamic, Marxist, and military law). Part III
covers the three aspects of the penal process: the definition of
norms and principles of liability (substantive criminal law), along
with a less detailed treatment of the imposition of norms (criminal
procedure) and the infliction of sanctions (prison law).
Contributors consider the basic topics traditionally addressed in
scholarship on the general and special parts of the substantive
criminal law (such as jurisdiction, mens rea, justifications, and
excuses). Part IV places criminal law in context, both domestically
and transnationally, by exploring the contrasts between criminal
law and other species of law and state power and by investigating
criminal law's place in the projects of comparative law,
transnational, and international law.
