The Philosophy of Criminal Law: An Introduction delves into the fundamental principles of criminal law, encompassing concepts such as intention, complicity, and duress, and their operational dynamics within the realm of criminal law practice and our daily lives. At the core of this book lies the central philosophical concept of responsibility: what does it entail to be accountable for an action, to hold someone accountable for an action, or to provide an excuse to evade responsibility for an action? This unique textbook serves as a valuable resource, offering thought-provoking discussion points to enhance ongoing conversations. It addresses these critical questions in a manner accessible to law and non-law students alike. Through detailed examination of real cases, a critical approach to criminal law is adopted throughout. The primary focus of the text will be on the criminal law of England and Wales, with occasional cases from other jurisdictions and occasional examples from other areas of law.
This text is highly recommended for advanced undergraduate and graduate students of law, philosophy, criminology, political science, and sociology. It provides a comprehensive and insightful exploration of the philosophical foundations of criminal law, offering valuable insights into the complex interplay between legal principles, ethical considerations, and societal implications.
