Keywords:

This volume presents a leading contribution to the substantive arena relating to Homicide in the criminal law. In broad terms, the ambit of homicide standardisations in extant law is contestable and opaque. This book provides a logical template to focus the debate. The overall concept addresses three specific elements within this arena, embracing an overarching synergy between them. This edifice engages in an examination of UK provisions, and in contrasting these provisions against alternative domestic jurisdictions as well as comparative contributions addressing a particularised research grid for content. The comparative chapters provide a wider background of how other legal systems treat a variety of specialised issues relating to homicide in the context of the criminal law.

The debate in relation to homicide continues apace for academics, practitioners and within the criminal justice system. Having expert descriptions of the wider issues surrounding the particular discussion and of other legal systems’ approaches serves to stimulate and inform that debate. This collection will be a major source of reference for future discussion.

Recenzijas

'This is an authoritative and valuable contribution to the discussion surrounding the way in which the criminal law deals with homicide offences. It should be read by anyone researching this increasingly complex area of law.'

Christopher J. Newman, University of Sunderland, UK

'Homicide in Criminal law is a sophisticated account of a range of conceptual problems in the law of homicide. The text, both intellectually challenging yet immensely readable, provides a feast of ethical, philosophical and practical reflection for serious students of criminal law. An admirable addition to Bohlander and Reeds collaborative series on substantive criminal law.'

Warren Brookbanks, Auckland University of Technology, New Zealand
