Book Description:
|
Five legal theorists tackle a range of fundamental questions on the nature of the philosophy of criminal law. The essays discuss some of the principles by which a system of law should be structured, and they ask whether our own systems are genuinely principled or riven by basic contradictions, reflecting deeper political and social conflicts.
