Esta edición contiene los discursos de laudatio del Prof. Luzón Peña y de contestación del Prof. Mir Puig durante el acto de investidura, en los que se analizan los principales hitos de la trayectoria académica y de la obra científica de Mir Puig, en especial sus múltiples aportaciones a la dogmática penal y la política criminal a partir de la propuesta que formuló en 1976 de construir e interpretar los principios y categorías del Derecho penal partiendo de los principios básicos de un Estado social y democrático de Derecho. Y, por otra parte, reúne los trabajos presentados en o derivados de un seminario internacional celebrado también en Alcalá en conexión con el doctorado honoris causa, en los que destacados penalistas españoles y extranjeros, mayoritariamente desde las escuelas de Mir y Luzón, pero también de otros grupos científicos, abordan temas centrales de la aplicación e interpretación de la ley penal, la teoría general del delito, el sistema de sanciones penales, la parte especial del Derecho penal y cuestiones constitucionales del proceso penal.
Particularly in the humanities and social sciences, festschrifts are a popular forum for discussion. The IJBF provides quick and easy general access to these important resources for scholars and students. The festschrifts are located in state and regional libraries and their bibliographic details are recorded. Since 1983, more than 639,000 articles from more than 29,500 festschrifts, published between 1977 and 2010, have been catalogued.
This volume critically explores the basis and the goal of punishment from the standpoint of the right to punish. The work reviews the main doctrines that have dealt with the theme of punishment from Antiquity to the present, not limiting itself to the legal-philosophical sphere but also analyzing the contributions from other social sciences. It then explores how these are reflected in the sphere of Positive Law.
This handbook explores criminal law systems from around the world, with the express aim of stimulating comparison and discussion. General principles of criminal liability receive prominent coverage in each essay—including discussions of rationales for punishment, the role and design of criminal codes, the general structure of criminal liability, accounts of mens rea, and the rights that criminal law is designed to protect—before the authors turn to more specific offenses like homicide, theft, sexual offenses, victimless crimes, and terrorism. This key reference covers all of the world's major legal systems—common, civil, Asian, and Islamic law traditions—with essays on sixteen countries on six different continents. The introduction places each country within traditional distinctions among legal systems and explores noteworthy similarities and differences among the countries covered, providing an ideal entry into the fascinating range of criminal law systems in use the world over.
This innovative study presents a genealogy of modern comparative law, examining both theory and practice around the world.
This book intends to contribute to the consolidation of the new approach to lawmaking that has taken place in the last 20 years in legal philosophy and legal theory, spreading to other legal fields, especially criminal law. This new legislation science focusing on criminal problems has triggered a growing interest in the field, a dynamic which has led to a long-needed convergence of disciplines such as administrative law, criminal law, criminology, political science, sociology and, of course, legal philosophy to contribute to a more rational decision-making process for the construct of criminal laws. With the intention to continue on with the building of a solid “Criminal Legislation Science”, this work presents scholars, lawmakers and students various emblematic approaches to enrich the discussion about different and promising tools and theoretical frameworks.
