Die Anfangerubungen in der Universitatsausbildung sind - als Voraussetzung fur die Zulassung zu den UEbungen fur Fortgeschrittene - nach wie vor an zahlreichen Universitaten wichtige Ausbildungsabschnitte. An den Universitaten, die die Anfangerubungen abgeschafft haben, verlagert sich das Schwergewicht automatisch auf die UEbungen fur Fortgeschrittene. Gleichwohl halt sich der "Examensdruck" in den UEbungen in einem ertraglichen Mass, da die UEbungen bis zum erfolgreichen Abschluss wiederholt werden konnten und koennen. Mit Einfuhrung der Zwischenprufung hat sich die Ausbildungslage entscheidend geandert. Der Misserfolg in einer Zwischenprufungsklausur kann - auch wenn eine Wiederholungsmoeglichkeit besteht - schnell zum abrupten Ende des juristischen Studiums fuhren. Wichtig ist es daher, dass der Student sich rechtzeitig Kenntnisse daruber verschafft, was in den einzelnen Prufungsleistungen von ihm erwartet wird. Neben dem erforderlichen Wissen ist aber die UEbung im praktischen Umgang mit Prufungsfallen von besonderer Bedeutung. Da die ersten Leistungen der Zwischenprufung schon sehr fruh im Studium verlangt werden, besteht ein Bedurfnis nach konzentrierter Information. Diese Information will das Sonderheft bieten, und zwar als methodische Hilfestellung. Um das eigene Wissen und Koennen zu erweitern, aber sogleich kritisch zu analysieren, ist es erforderlich, nach Kenntnis des Klausursachverhalts eine Loesungsskizze zu erarbeiten und diese mit der abgedruckten Fallloesung zu vergleichen. So kann aus Fehlern gelernt, die noetige Sicherheit im Umgang mit dem Rechtsstoff gewonnen und die Zwischenprufung erfolgreich bestanden werden.

["Basic Course in Criminal Law - General Criminal Law Teachings"] The textbook introduces all the principles and systematic connections of General Criminal Law Teaching. By presenting and debating current solutions to problems in jurisprudence and legal teaching, it offers the reader the opportunity to comprehend the evolution of assumed premises in General Criminal Law Teaching. The scope has been extended since the previous edition. This expansion was required on the one hand due to the adoption of new questions and on the other hand due to the emerging clarification, specification and modifications of known problem constellations that arose in the ongoing debate. The following are cited for example: The halting of proximate cause through independently executed self-danger and/or self-damage, a negligence offence, substantial and unsubstantial deviations from real versus imaginary causal effects, the "emergency assistance through torture", the "killing of house tyrannies", the liability of Guarantor's Obligation Arising from Preceding Action ("Ingerenzhaftung") from committing an offence through positive action, the punishment of an unsuitable attempt of a false offence of omission, the "professionally adequate" and "neutral" aid procedure and the competitors.
