Book excerpt: Este libro se dividirá a su vez en dos partes: la primera, el estudio sintético, el de las generalidades; y la segunda, la del análisis de cada uno de ellos particularmente considerados. La parte inicial trata de desentrañar el objeto jurídico y explicar tanto el concepto de la libertad como el del honor sexuales. Después se analiza un elemento que sirve de base de diferenciación entre los varios delitos (la edad de la ofendida), lo que constituye el elemento objetivo de algunos de ellos (el acceso) y otros temas comunes. Luego será más fácil, con estos prenotandos, estudiar cada uno de los ilícitos, por separado

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La evolución experimentada por la sociedad española a partir de la promulgación de la Constitución de 1978 ha tenido un claro reflejo en el pensamiento social, principalmente en los roles atribuidos a la mujer, así como en una nueva concepción de la sexualidad, cuyos efectos han irradiado en el Código Penal y en el tratamiento que se ha dispensado al llamado Derecho Penal sexual, motivado principalmente por el desarrollo de las tesis feministas. Es más, la aludida transformación experimentada en España hace cuarenta años se plasmó en una nueva concepción de la mujer, atribuyéndole un nuevo rol, pasando de ser definida por “su condición de cuerpo sexuado y moral virtuosa”, merecedora de una intensa protección penal que no se dispensaba al varón, hasta ser considerada un sujeto con plena capacidad de autodeterminación sexual, con plenos derechos y libertades. De este modo, la libertad sexual deviene en bien jurídico objeto de protección integral que se identifica con la prestación del consentimiento libre, revocable y para unas prácticas concretas. El mutuo acuerdo se establece como marco de libertad y el derecho a decidir sobre el propio cuerpo como elemento central.

Download or read book Forensic Justice written by Beulah Shekhar and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-03-18 with total page 519 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forensic science is playing an increasingly important role in criminal investigations, as it provides scientific methods and techniques to gather and analyse evidence from crime scenes. Forensic evidence can be crucial in identifying suspects, linking them to the crime scene, and helping to secure convictions in court. In this sense, forensic science is seen as an aid to criminal investigation, providing reliable and objective evidence that can be used to uncover the truth behind criminal activities. The integration of forensic science with law and criminology is creating a new era of progressive thinking, where advanced techniques are being developed to better understand the nature of crime and the behaviour of criminals. With the help of forensic science, investigators can obtain speedy justice and bring criminals to book. However, this requires appropriate measures to be taken for the efficient execution of forensic investigations, including the use of modern technology and the training of professionals in the latest forensic techniques. Given the importance of forensic science in the criminal justice system, it is essential to have a comprehensive understanding of its different aspects. This includes the collection, preservation, and analysis of forensic evidence, as well as the interpretation of this evidence in the context of criminal investigations. This book covers these topics in detail, providing valuable insights for professionals, practitioners, academics, and students of the related fields.

Download or read book Criminal Law and Morality in the Age of Consent written by Aniceto Masferrer and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-02-09 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the relation between morality and politics, and morality and law, a field that has been studied for more than two thousand years The law is a part of human culture, and this touches upon a dynamic reality that is connected to the relation between nature and freedom, nature and culture. If such relations are not clearly understood, as is the case today, the relation between morality and law cannot be properly comprehended either. The relationship between morality and criminal law must constantly evolve to meet the needs of changing times and circumstances. Social changes and new situations require new answers. And since the relationship involves criminal law, legal philosophy and legal history, interdisciplinary approaches are always needed. Featuring fifteen original contributions by legal scholars from various European and American universities, the book does not pretend to solve the complexity of the relation between morality and criminal law, but instead expresses criticism, offers some proposals and stimulates further thought. The book tackles the topic from an interdisciplinary perspective (criminal law, constitutional law, legal philosophy and legal history, among others). As such, it appeals not only to scholars and students, but also to lawyers, policymakers, historians, theologians, philosophers and general readers who are interested in the legal, social, political and philosophical issues of our time.

Download or read book Rainbow Jurisdiction at the International Criminal Court written by Valérie V. Suhr and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-12-13 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This timely book comprehensively examines whether the worst human rights violations directed specifically at sexual and gender minorities are punishable under international criminal law, as codified in the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court. Drawing on general rules of interpretation, the development of human rights for sexual and gender minorities, and the social construction of gender, this monograph reveals that the worst crimes committed against persons because of their sexual orientation or gender identity can amount to crimes against humanity, particularly the crime of persecution under Article 7(1)(h). It also shows how legislators can be held individually criminally responsible for passing laws that criminalize consensual same-sex sexuality. The book not only makes a significant and original contribution to the literature but is also highly relevant for international criminal law practitioners, since, so far, no cases regarding this topic exist. Dr. Valérie V. Suhr is currently a trainee lawyer in the district of the Koblenz Court of Appeal in Germany

Download or read book Sexual Assault written by Tatjana Hörnle and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-02-16 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sexual assault law has been undergoing significant shifts around the world. Traditional criminal laws against sexual assault had a narrow scope: they targeted rape as coerced sexual intercourse, and they defined coercion as physical violence or threats with physical violence. Modern offense descriptions are tracing a change in the logic and structure of criminal laws against sexual assault from the offenders' violence to the victims' lack of consent as the key feature of criminal wrongdoing. However, there are clear and marked differences regarding the offence descriptions in substantive criminal laws in various jurisdictions. Sexual Assault: Law Reform in a Comparative Perspective provides an overview of the debates surrounding the concept and definition of sexual consent, comparing the context and content of law reform in six countries: Canada, England and Wales, Germany, Sweden, the U.S. (concentrating on the American Law Institute's Model Penal Code), and Spain. Leading scholars in the field also analyse the normative questions that arise once the notion of consent gains centre stage. The overall purpose is to assess whether the new generation of criminal prohibitions reflect coherent and convincing concepts of sexual autonomy and consent, and what could be considered the best models for future law reform.

Download or read book La victimizaci n sexual de menores en el C digo penal espa ol y en la pol tica criminal internacional written by Myriam Cabrera Martín and published by Midac, SL. This book was released on 2019-04-17 with total page 495 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La obra aborda el tratamiento que recibe el fenómeno de la victimización sexual de menores, no solo desde la dogmática jurídico-penal, sino también desde la política criminal que se propugna por parte de los organismos internacionales. Para ello se estructura en torno a dos Partes. En la Parte I se procede a realizar un análisis de los delitos que, en el Código Penal español, se refieren de una manera específica a la victimización sexual de menores, así como de las controversias que plantea su interpretación y aplicación, valorando si la legislación española da respuesta a la realidad de la victimización sexual de menores y en qué medida lo hace de una forma coherente, racional y respetuosa con los principios informadores del Derecho Penal. Asimismo, se analiza si la regulación contenida en el Código Penal responde adecuadamente a las exigencias de la Directiva 2011/93/UE, relativa a la lucha contra los abusos sexuales y la explotación sexual de los menores y la pornografía infantil, teniendo en cuenta que esta Directiva constituye el instrumento jurídico que de manera más inmediata y precisa vincula al legislador nacional, y que es también el más ambicioso en relación con las medidas relativas al Derecho Penal sustantivo. En la Parte II, previa exposición de los instrumentos jurídicos que poseen mayor relevancia en la lucha contra la victimización sexual de menores en el plano internacional, y previo establecimiento de un marco terminológico sobre la materia, se realiza una exposición y sistematización de las directrices internacionales relativas a la lucha contra la victimización sexual de menores, centrando la atención en aquellas medidas que poseen carácter penal y, dentro de estas, en las referentes a la tipificación de conductas y al establecimiento de penas.

Download or read book Consent Stealthing and Desire Based Contracting in the Criminal Law written by Brianna Chesser and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-12-24 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Consent, Stealthing and Desire-Based Contracting in the Criminal Law examines the inconsistencies in the definitions of consent in sexual encounters by examining emerging sex crimes alongside changing community values and the changing legal definitions of consent in sexual offending, focusing on common law and civil law countries. This book distinguishes itself through the use of empirically validated research strategies and an in-depth analysis of current legislative regimes. It argues that desire and pleasure are largely ignored by legal consent definitions, despite its importance in sexuality more broadly. Using two case studies of emerging forms of sexual offending, the criminalisation of sadomasochistic sexual practices and the offence of ‘stealthing’, it examines how the law is both a blunt and under-utilised instrument in the policing of people’s sexual relationships. The presence or absence of consent can change a lawful sexual act between two people into a serious crime with potentially devastating consequences to both survivor and offender. Yet there remains no consistent definition of consent applied within and between legal jurisdictions across the world. A comparative analysis reveals parallels between common law countries and civil law countries. The book also provides a brief history of the use of term consent in relation to sexual offending and examines definitional and sociological requirements of conceptual consent across history. Covering jurisdictions in the US, UK, and Australia, providing an innovative resource on issues relating to consent presented in an accessible way, this book will appeal to students and researchers of criminal justice, criminal law, criminology, sociology and gender studies.

Download or read book Understanding Sexual Offending written by Patrick Lussier and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-10-25 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Addressing common myths and misconceptions about sexual offending, this book highlights the current state of scientific knowledge about the origins and the development of sexual offending. It offers a critical overview of current criminal justice policies and close to 100 years of research on how to best improve these policies through theoretically-grounded and methodologically-rigorous research. Focusing on proactive prevention-oriented strategies, this book revisits popular ideas about sexual offending through an evidence-based lens, addressing ideological and populist discourse that has led to ineffective and reactive policies. It advocates for a clearly defined concept of the phenomenon of sexual offending to underpin research and treatment. Uniquely, authors consider sexual offending from the viewpoint of criminal justice research and practitioners, incorporating the sociohistorical construction of sexual offending as a social problem, developmental life course research, and the impact of social policies. This book is a call for more proactive research on the origins and the development of sexual offending over the life course.
