Criminalizing The State, François Tanguay-Renaud Oct 2015

Criminalizing The State, François Tanguay-Renaud

François Tanguay-Renaud

François Tanguay-Renaud, Associate Professor, Osgood Hall Law School speaks about political theory and criminal law, asking the underexplored question of whether the state, as opposed to its individual members, can intelligibly and legitimately be criminalized, with a specific focus on the possibility of its domestic criminalization. He identifies the core objections to the criminalization of states, for example, objections to the condemnation and punishment of the state, as a result of a suitably ‘criminal’ process of public accountability, for the culpable perpetration of legal wrongs. He then investigate ways in which these objections can be challenged.

European Criminal Law, Mareike Persson

Mareike Persson

There is little doubt that Europeanization is making headway now in the field of criminal justice. Some provisions of the Union Treaty (like Art.29, 31, 34 TEU) are at least an indication of the forces which are likely to shape future developments. There exist different possible lines of development: more intensive co-operation, assimilation and harmonisation, for example in the form of a model penal code or in form of the proposed Corpus Juris. They all have their weaknesses.
